Has anyone been able to acquire any of the Sierra 32 grainers? I managed to get my hands on quite a few of these, but I cannot get them to stabilize in my Rem 700 with Pac-Nor 26" 13" twist SS Match barrel. About every 4th to 6th shot I get the completely sideways bullet going through the target. Sure cuts a nice design of the bullet. I can use Berger 35's with the same powder chg, point first every time. I have cleaned the barrel very thoroughly, even looked down it with a HAWKEYE, barrel finish is not the culprit. I have called Sierra, they have not heard of this. I shoot these in the XR100 in .204, but with a 12" twist, no problem. The 13" is fast enough for the 32 grain. I am just wondering if anyone else has had similar problems? I have slowed the bullets down, and speed'd them up, problem is JUST there.

Any ideas?

I have several boxes and have used a few. No problems in a 1-12 twist at all. very very accurate too.......

Thanks for the input guys. I did forget to mention that these are very accurate bullets. When I can get a group that does not keyhole, they are one-holers. The XR100 shoots these as well as the Berger 30's and 35's. No keyholing with 1/12.
