A friend of mine has a 1:12 sps and was able to shoot the 208 amax with really good results. They had to be single loaded, and we were around 5000ft, but they worked well for him. The 185gr juggernaut also shot really well for him.

As another reference point, my .308 Bartlein 1:10 5R (23 inches) shoots the 180 grain Federal Fusion better than any other factory load, in the .35 MOA range at 200 yards. I have to imagine the terminal ballistics are pretty good too.

I stopped out to Bass Pro today to get my pop's a few shirts. Grabbed a couple boxes of the 175gr. while I was there. Hopefully it'll stop raining and I'll be able to see how they shoot. I put together a 14.5" SOCOM upper last week I want to put some more round through too.

It shoots the 175's as well as it shoots the 168's, at least out to 200 yds. Had to move the group about a 1/2 inch left, elevation was fine. Also put some more rounds through the new SOCOM upper build!

I have a 700 PSS produced in 1993. It is a 24”, 1:12” twist barrel. It handles both 175 gr Federal GMM and my hand loads fine. In fact, the factory Federal is typically sub 1/2 MOA groups for five rounds. I’ve taken it to 900 yards and managed 4-5” groups. I think you’ll be fine, but every barrel is different. Just give it a try.
