[QUOTE="7mmShooter, post: 1091329, member: 81795"] Hey guys, I've been looking at the Cutting Edge MTAC and MTH bullet lines in 375 cal, and loosely following the discussions on twist rates. Are gain twist barrels really necessary? Would a lower bearing surface compression (5R or 6 groove rifling) allow constant twist barrels to be acceptably utilized? A faster than conventional twist would probably need to be used, but would a 7.5 or 8 twist be enough to run the 350gr and up range of the CE 375 cals in a 375 Snipetac or similar? [/QUOTE]
