Did you go with the 1:7 or 1:8 twist SPR barrel? What loads did you shoot?

1/7 twist on this barrel and I shot two different loadings of 77gr SMK's and one load using 55 gr Barnes bullets after neither of the 77gr loads produced results.

These loads aren't "world class" but easily shoot sub-moa in my 16" chrome lined combat style barrels and Wilson Combat barrels.

On the positive side, it cycled and functioned flawlessly.

I just removed the FH and the crush washer had to be screwed off the end of the barrel. Never had to do that before so I’m a thinkin that was the issue. Will try another FH I have inbound tomorrow to see if it times better. Regardless, I will stop on the less torquey end of the spectrum and buy a FH that times properly in any position if necessary.
