[QUOTE="milanuk, post: 147186, member: 376"] Hello, I've got another .308 in the works... 1-11.25" twist, 26" Rock barrel. I picked that twist intending to work primarily w/ 175-190gr bullets... but now I'm contemplating some 210gr bullets (when/if the gun ever gets done). I know the twist rate 'rules' aren't always hard-n-fast... I've shot 155's out of a 1-10" w/ great accuracy, and I've heard of people pushing 175's and even 190's out of 13 twist barrels. Ideally I would have picked a 1-10" for those 210gr bullets. The question is, are they likely to stabilize in a 11.25 twist, or not. If not... I'm sure the 175-190's will work just fine. Anybody out there shot 210gr bullets out of their .308 recently? What kind of MV were you getting? Thanks, Monte [/QUOTE]
