[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 455698, member: 25383"] it's got a lot to do with the actual bullet profile and length. The higher B/C the faster the twist rate needed. Speer makes a note in their manual that they do not recommend a 1:12 barrel for their 62 grain bullet with a B/C just over .30. The Nosler 55 grain BT is still higher than a 55 grain Vmax, and that's why they don't do well in 14 twist barrels. Speed has little to do with it after a certain point gary [/QUOTE]
