[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1453873, member: 30902"] From the studying I did on the subject the big problem is going from a very slow twist like a 1:14- a very fast twist like a 1:7. I'm not sure you'd see enough of a difference going from say a 1:10-1:7 but essentially as the twist gets faster widening out the grooves in the bullet there's a tremendous amount of shearing force on the jackets. Still being addicted to speed myself the incredibly high velocities you can achieve with the gain twist barrels really appealed to me but the negatives just convinced me to stay with conventionally twisted barrels.
