[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1861370, member: 87243"] At sea level under 60ish degrees it is still only marginal with an 8 twist at 3000-3100 fps or so. He stated he hunts at low elevation in cold temps at times, so an 8 twist would not be a wise choice. A 7-7.5 twist is optimum, 8 twist will work if you hunt at higher elevations. I use an 8 twist in one of my rifles for them, but the lowest elevation I hunt is around 6500 ft. If your building a rifle for a specific bullet, no point to start out only marginal. [/QUOTE]
