Howa make the current Super lite with a 1:10 twist, is 25-2600fps really a rainbow ??

Nope, nothing wrong with the trajectory on those. Zero around 150m, should be about 50mm high at 80m and about 150mm low at 200m, depending on the bullet you use. A round nose would be more curved, an ELDX would be flatter.

Your closer than I was. I was expecting about 8" or 9" @ 200yards. Its just under 6". Assuming 2300FPS @ Muzzle.
