[QUOTE="devildoc, post: 170855, member: 5615"] you're missing a vital jump, there. If you have a 1:10 twist that will impart a certain rpm to the bullet. that spin stays relatively constant (it does slow a bit) however as velocity decreases distance that the bullet travels per spin decreases. so though your bullet was spinning once every ten inches at the muzzle it will be spinning for instance once every 8 inches at distance.
