    I would verify the twist with a cleaning rod. Some 9 twist were a little short. My Ruger Hawkeye is a genuine 9 twist. My Savage 9 twist are 8 5/8. I can shoot the long 75gr Amax from the Savages with no stabilization issues. Haven’t tried a 75 ELDM yet. My Ruger shoots the Hornady 75gr hpbt and 77 TMK and 75 SBBT with no issues.
