[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 241600, member: 4191"] [b]Re: Article on Spin Drift[/b] Following is a link to a site that gives a good, yet brief, explanation of spindrift. This author calls it gyroscopic drift. He says on average to count on 8-9 inches of spindrift at 1000 yds. Right twist rifling will cause rightward drift, and most everyone has right twist rifling.

Bullets fired from right twist barrels drift to the right, and vice versa by the same amount, typically 8-9 inches at 1000 yards for small arms trajectories[/I]." [/QUOTE]
