[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1840473, member: 2736"] This is something I am still undecided about the advantages and disadvantages. In theory the gain twist appears to have all the advantages, but in actual use that doesn't appear to prove out. I have had several and still do own one, and being anal I try to look at fired bullets to inspect the engraving on the bullet and find that the best, most uniform engraving Is with slower twist rates and the worst looking is the gain twist. The fast twist rates are in between in quality and uniformity. As far as the most accurate, the standard rifling, proper grove count and twist rate has been the best for me. Just my experience with different twist designs. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
