[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1981909, member: 4191"] I look's like another killer cartridge. I have an 8.5 twist blank ready to be threaded. I think that'll do it, with the aluminum tips. I believe the lightweight tips reduce the twist rate requirement by at least 1/2". Could you provide a bullet length? I'd like to run it thru my tipped bullet stabilization calculator. I'm stabilizing the 275gr 338 BD with a 10-twist, and they call for a 9-twist with that bullet. [/QUOTE]
