[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 142544, member: 7"] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Twist rate can effect your loads? Thats news to me. The twist will be a 1-9. [/ QUOTE ] Yes twist rate does effect your loads, for example if you have a 1-10" to 1-12" twist you could load w760 and shoot 70gr BT's at close to 4000fps (keithcandlers estimates of 4150fps are a bit optomistic and closer to the second coming of Chernobyl rather than reality). since you later stated that you have a 1-9" twist your best bet would be to try H4831,RL22 or VVN165 and use a Berger 95gr VLD. with a B.C. of .514 acombo that would be hard to beat [/ QUOTE ] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] - That's NEWS to me too. If he has a 9" twist, and wants to shoot 87 V-Maxs and 90 Bergers, the rate of twist does NOT effect the powder choice or the loading data. He can use whatever powder he wants... and if he had a 10" twist, or an 8" twist, the loading data for his choice of bullets would not change. . [/QUOTE]
