PJgunner, You may be right on 1x9 twist for the 120 grain bullet in the Roberts. I have always stayed with the 100 grain in this caliber. If you want to go higher, try the 117 grain bullets. They are called the magic 117s because they seem to shoot well when the same gun won't shoot 120s. I shoot two 25-06s that feel that way about the 117s vs 120s. I have had a buck Muley take two Nosler 120s through the heart before he went down. He was alarmed and trying to sneak away when I fired.
