[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1983555, member: 7999"] I am not big on stretching the twist rate if the rifle is going to be used for hunting. It is most definitely possible to shoot marginally stable bullets very well. But, marginal stability greatly increases the possibility of a poor terminal performance. Tumbling after impact or not opening because the bullet is in yaw on impact is the potential problem. I believe many of the stories told about bullets and poor terminal performance can be chalked up to marginal stability. [/QUOTE]
