1:12", 1:9" were just built in 2008 and later.

what will a 1-12 stabalize.  and can it over stabalize ?  like can a 35 gr be to light for a 1-12.
Trying to handload for accuracy starting with some 45 gr but would it stabalize a 52 or 53 or 55 gr'ers

I have shot my 1-12" with any thing from 34 grain Midsouth Varmint nightmares to flat base 50 grain spire points that are stabilized. I tried some Barnes varmint grenades and they did not stabilize. I have not shot anything heavier than 50 grains in mine. Good Luck and Good Shooting

Mine is ok with 45 gr and 40 gr is good but the best is 35 gr with Lil Gun.
