Will a 24", 9.5 twist 7mm Rem Mag barrel stabilize a 175gr Sierra Matchking?
What about the 162gr A-Max?
Thanks!

Very easily.
For conversation I shoot 162's outta a 22" 1-10" Lilja in SAAMI 7-08.
175SMK's suck heavy ass in comparison and in all regards.

The 9.5 will work fine with 162s and 175s. I use 162s in the 7-08, but 175 SMKs in the magnum.

I wouldn't shoot 175SMK's into Felines and noone hates Cats more than I.
The 162A-Max rates building a rifle around and the 175SMK,makes .308" 155Scenars start looking good.(grin)

Not sure what the problem is with the 175 SMK. They shoot extremely well out of my 7mm mag. Probably won't be a great bullet out of a slower twist barrel...but with the proper twist they are an excellent choice.

The only reason I'd tell you to stay away from the 175s is so there would be one less person trying to buy them. They are a good bullet as long as you get them up to a good velocity.

The 175SMK is a shit BC given it's mass and of dismal terminal affects in extrapolation.
Humored that such things horn you gals up and that your "experience" compells you to brag them up.
Funny stuff!

I don't think you should take one guy as a consensus.
