[QUOTE="6MM06AI, post: 1502049, member: 55951"] Built myself a 22-250 with 1 in 8 twist, was shooting vmax bullets at around 3800. They started coming apart because of RPM's. (cost me a coyote). Had to switch to a better bullet 52gr smk to handle the spin rate. Also have noticed it seems to me that a higher spin rate seems to kill animals better than a slow twist. 200k rpm vs 325k rpm , if I did the math right. The faster the bullet is spinning when it hits becomes more violent when knocked out of perfect rotation. [/QUOTE]
