[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1422325, member: 7999"] Unfortunately the increased vel doesn't make as much difference in stability as some say it does. I checked on the twist calculator and if you were able to push them at 3600fps they would still only have 1.22sg. Barely stable enough to fly and not good for hunting. The 9" twist in the 6.5 is as bad as 10" twist in .277. Our 121g Heavy Hammer is the heaviest bullet we could make, with vld style nose, that will fully stabilize in a 9" twist. Steve [/QUOTE]
