[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 1310536, member: 17844"] They were 1 in 10 , 1 in 11 is a new thing . It's salesmanship mainly . Most people equate 1 in 11 with target accuracy and not over stabilizing the bullet . Ballistic advantage is slight . It may not stabilize some of the very long bullets that are available now it's hard to say without modeling it but it would stabilize most being hard driven . Sako is doing a few dumb things because they are being run by a shot gun manufacture not a rifle maker . Tell me one great rifle that the Italians ever made ? I can't think of one and don't say 6.5 Carcano it was cheap rough junk . It will reduce it's appeal somewhat in some countries but for the avrage hunter it will work ok . I will not go less than 1 in 10 in a 308 or 30-06 as it still stabilizes shorter bullets well at subsonic velocities . Not sure 1 in 11 would . [/QUOTE]
