Handy info!
Cooper I assume it is a .308?
If so, then sounds like the 1:11” twist is not fast enough to stabilise the longer 200gr bullet.
shooternz’s 151gr bullets are specifically designed for .308.
No problem shooternz. I’ve got another short video of the bullet coming out of the milk bottle too but the GoPro went flat and one of my fool sons had hidden the charger and usb cables. But I watched...

An enjoyable watch.
I’d actually found you and subscribed before you pitched up here cos I was searching 308 subsonic recently, as it is my next project. A suggestion that would be helpful for me...
