[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 471522, member: 24624"] Notwithstanding benchrest accuracy concerns as described above, some people beleive that overstabilizing is better than understabilizing. You can always back down from max velocity to avoid shreading bullets, but you'll have to rebarrel to get a faster twist. If you think speeding up your bullet in a slow twist barrel will increase the rpm enough to stabilize it, then check your math. A few hundred fps does nothing for rpm compared to 1 in 10" vs 1 in 9". This is my understanding/opinion from a lot of reading and a little experimentation. But, you may want a more qualified source than me. [/QUOTE]
