[QUOTE="Gerard Schultz, post: 1618183, member: 51"] Do not equate stable flight with correct terminal ballistics. To hunt with long bullets over long distances requires a long magazine box and a tight twist. Under 500 the twist does not matter if it is tighter than 1:10" but over 500 it does matter. I would go with a 9" twist and 26" barrel. [/QUOTE]
