It was a 7-08 barrel and action 1x9.5 twist and I thought the same about twist rate but it seems to shoot 180grn fine but I'm yet to try it on targets over 350 yards.

Berger recommend a minimum twist rate of 1:9 for 195 eol. You might give up a tiny amount of bc which will have a effect down range, but for a hunting rifle, you nor any animal you shoot will be able to tell the difference
