[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 1405184, member: 22335"] Read my response again. I never said that twist rate had anything to do with speed. You made some assUmption. This is a long range site, and longer ranges tend to mean longer/heavier bullets and higher BCs. Faster twists stabilize linger/heavier bullets better, and as such the Weatherby does not do as well. Many 1:9.25 twist 7mm rifles shoot the 168s and 180s with no problems. The 1:10 Weatherby can have problems at >160 grains with some bullets due to the twist rate when compared to the faster-twist Remington’s. [/QUOTE]
