A 1:8 twist with 55 gr. bullets is a very marginal combination. It is a whole lot better than a 1:7 but still, a 1:8 is pretty fast for a 55 gr. bullet. A 55 should stabilize OK in a 1:8 but a 1:9 or 1:12 would be better, and with UMC being reportedly slightly under powered, my money lies with the UMC ammo being the culprit.
