[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1199351, member: 7999"] I think the main thing that will be necessary is that the rifle have a 10" twist. We just received a barrel with an 8" twist that will be chambered with a .338 Lapua 40* shoulder. We will be running this bullet with it and we are now starting on plans for possibly a 450g version. With an 8" twist we gotta see what we can do. Right? In my opinion the mono bullets are better off with as much stability as possible. For that matter I believe this to be the case with any bullet that if for hunting/being used for terminal effect. Higher stability ensures that the bullet stay oriented point first on impact making sure that the bullet functions as intended. If a bullet yaws on impact then the bullet will not work as designed. Punching paper does not require as much attention to the sg. Steve [/QUOTE]
