I don't know if I would be so quick to say light bullets don't stabilize in these barrels. I have started playing with some Lapua 100 grain bullets and I'm getting some fairly decent groups with them at 100 yards, less than 2 inches using Varget. I have a lot more work to do with these bullets yet but the lack of recoil is truly amazing. I actually started using these bullets initially in one of my Krags just to see what would happen and I obtained similar results.
