[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 2239374, member: 14204"] The fast twist is the minimum barrel twist recommendation to effectively stabilize the bullet you are going to use. For instance, a 1:8" twist rate is required for 175 Matrix VLD. My .270 AI has 30" Lilja barrel with 1:8" specifically built to propel the 165/175 Matrix VLDs, 170 Berger, and the long mono bullets. YMMV when it comes to velocity, you'll need to experiment the load configuration your barrel likes. The major change on the cartridge is the shoulder angle from 17.30 to 40 degrees. [/QUOTE]
