[QUOTE="muleystalker, post: 1692429, member: 79944"] Its not so much the weight of the bullet but more the design/length of the bullet, it just so happens that added length is a byproduct of making a heavier bullet for a given caliber, unless you change the design such as going from a VLD to a round nose. In your example there are 6.5 160gr round nose bullets that will stabilize out of a 1;8 twist at 2700fps. [/QUOTE]
