[QUOTE="Trnelson, post: 641407, member: 42308"] My 30/338 has a 10 twist 26" barrel on it. It allows me to shoot the largest weight high BC bullets with accuracy. I shoot the 230g Berger tactical OTM, I get 1/2 MOA accuracy with it. I've also shot the 240 Sierra MK but found superior accuracy with the Berger. It can get to just under 2,900 before pressure puts a halt to safe fun. Best accuracy is closer to 2,800. I am not certain if an 11 twist would stabilize it or not, previous posters may have first hand insight. IMO the 210 Berger may be superior at velocities the 30/338 can safely attain. Furthermore an 11 twist may be sufficient to stabilize it. One could reasonably hope to get pretty close to 3,000 with that 210 bullet. I haven't caught the fluting bug, but some swear by it. I saw an interesting interrupted offset pattern on a rifle at the range recently. If I see it again I'll get a picture and the pertinent information. YMMV [/QUOTE]
