[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 247762, member: 1007"] I am not LV but RPM alone is not responsible for bullet stabilization. For example a 240 SMK at 4000 FPS in a 12x barrel will produce RPMs of 240000 but a stability factor that is below what is needed to get her to stabilize. The same bullet in a 9x barrel at 3000 FPS will yeild the same RPM yet a MUCH higher stability factor and will stabilize the bullet suitably. RPM alone help, but not as much as a tighter twist.
