Stablization

[MISSED]

So I took thew 300 for a drive last Sundee and put a couple of 180 gr Nosler Partition through some paper. All good just printing 3" high at 100m clicked it down a few another was sent and happy with that I thought I would check out where the 110gr VMax I had were going.
One shot same height................... but a lovely side profile hole about 4" to the right
Over Stabilized ?

What twist is the tube?

My .308 norma mag sends them out at 3700fps from a 1:10 beautifully.

No such thing as 'over stabilised' until they spin so hard that the progy explodes mid flight. Just a different projectile with a different poi.

Different point of aim yep but sideways

[trevort]

I'm with Bimbo, its either stable or its not.
perhaps its spun so fast its become unstable again

Oh hold on, is that what you meant by overstabilised

[mick_762]

The interesting part is the cause of the key holing.

Thats more what missed is asking about.

90 degrees to target?

Over stabilised they fly apart, under stabilised generally shows sideways (or part thereof).

The last time I heard of a genuine sideways target was with a smoothbore over distance. Have you checked the rifling lately?

After the run of luck he has had with that particular Sako, nothing would surprise me.

Talcum powder....

its obviusly not stable if it hits the target sideways. FIIK why tho.

Someone like Tony Z or AJR could enlighten us or one of the many ballistic scientists on saubier

Maybe he should aim a bit sideways?

I'd say it's just the rifle has a dislike for that pill, I tried the 25g Vmax thru my .17Rem and it did the same thing with a near perfect profile of the pill on paper, 25g HP a perfect tiny .17cal hole. Parked the box of pills and I think in the end gave them to someone else.

[bimbo]

Sorry didn't read the sideways bit. Did you fire any others or just that one?
If it hits where you are aiming does it matter if its going sideways through a bunny
