[QUOTE="Outlaw6.0, post: 713265, member: 23486"] You are dead on with that statement according to my observations. I've seen & participated in several discussion involving a heavy for caliber Barnes ending up where is shouldn't be. For some reason it seems to be a 160grn in a 7 mag but that could be coincidence. Rotational velocity is a must if you want your bullet to track on a straight path ESPECIALLY when the bullet starts to deform & become gyroscopically unstable. After a bullet deforms the bullet encounters more drag on the front making the projectile want to tumble or reverse for lack of a better term. Think of how non-rotational projectiles stabilize i.e. jets & arrows.... [/QUOTE]
