[QUOTE="Gerard Schultz, post: 774642, member: 51"] Note that the Miller Stability calculation works ok with lead core bullets. It is not accurate for copper monos or hollow point bullets of any type of manufacture. Combine copper mono, boat tail and hollow point and it is completely off. A good stability calculator for copper monos is the one done by McCoy and it is available at [url=http://www.border-barrels.com/barrel_twist.htm]Border Barrels Barrel Twist form[/url] For copper mono hollow point bullets, use a specific gravity of 8.9 where it asks for it.
