[QUOTE="Varminator 911, post: 1614039, member: 9705"] How do we know that form factor becomes an effort in futility? I see no evidence of that. Bullets with better form continue to be developed. Witness the new Sierra HPMK with a 27 caliber ogive. Witness the 22 cal bullets we shoot now vs yrs ago when I started with a 14 twist 220 Swift. Witness the very sleek target mono bullets like Warner flatine and others now being developed. More horsepower isn't the only way to increase down range performance. Combine hp and very sleek bullets and we will get the best possible. There's lots of meat left on the bone when you are shooting a 12 twist barrel. I'd ask Hammer for the longest 700 grain 458 bullet they can make, longest nose and least baring surface that will shoot. And get a 7 twist barrel if that's what it takes to make it shoot. The 2-3 mile target shooters will lead the way. Hunting bullets will follow. [/QUOTE]
