    Best projectile type for metford rifling?

    I'm reloading for 7.7 x 58mm Jap, trying to develop a good load for one of my Arisaka's, which has metford (polygonal) rifling. Does anyone know the best projectiles to utilise for this sort of rifling? Barrel length is 25.9" with 1:9 1/2" twist.

    I've tried the Hornady 150gr SP and Sierra 174gr HPBT match with average results.

    Cheers,

    D
