[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 923395, member: 22069"] Yes. Up to about 64 grains or so. My 14 twist stabilized Hornady 60 grain spire points. It just didn't shoot them very accurately. Here are some bullets in that weight range with the manufacturer suggested minimum twist: Berger 60g varmint bullet: 12 twist Nosler 60g Partition: 12 twist Nosler 64g Bonded: 14 twist Nosler 60g Ballistic Tip: 10 twist Hornady 60g VMAX: 12 twist Hornady 60g Spire Point: 14 twist Sierra 60g Varminter: 14 twist Sierra 63g Semi-Pointed: 14 twist Sierra 65g Game King: 10 twist Note that twist requirements can vary widely with both bullet weight and design. I didn't include monometal copper bullets. That changes things completely. Bottom line: Do your homework for each individual bullet type that you want to shoot. [/QUOTE]
