[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 498180, member: 15748"] There's really no such thing, at least, based on twist alone. There's just what your particular rifle has an affinity for, and you take it from there. With a 7.5" twist, you'll be able to stabillize anything up to the 80s, 82s or thereabouts. Won't be able to use the 90s, and personally, I don't consider that to be much of a loss; they're a pain to deal with, for the most part. Anything lighter, no problem. Assuming you're using a good bullet that doesn't have jacket concentricity issues, you can shoot the little 40 grainers just as well as a much slower twist. Anything in the 50, 55, 60, etc., range, no problem. Now the real choice of best bullet is going to come down to what you're doing with it, what are you using it for? Punching paper means a target bullet. Big game means a much more stoutly constructed hunting bullet, and varminting means something frangible. It's all about matching the bullet to the task you want to perform. [/QUOTE]
