[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1499543, member: 94491"] I have heard that there is now testing being done on expansion of a bullet in regards to twist rates. It's been noted that a higher twist rate at the same speed as a slower twist rate will show different expansion between the two. (Faster twist equating to more expansion) --- iirc, it is not yet proven just has been seen and noted and I'm pretty sure its it's actually being tested to see if it holds true. Also, some say that too fast of a twist can slow your muzzle velocity, but iirc this has been disproved except for in extreme twist rate situations. [/QUOTE]
