[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1550713, member: 1521"] 1.34sg is not 'bad', and goes up further & further downrange. Optimum for bullet or not, stable is still stable. Also keep in mind that local stability changes with air density. So run & consider the numbers under conditions you intend to shoot at. I run 139 Lapuas at 1.3sg here at seal level, while shooting is intended at ~1500ft elevation, where gyroscopic stability climbs to ~1.5. Thing is -it shoots just fine here. [/QUOTE]
