[QUOTE="David Emerson, post: 1833739, member: 112579"] I forget in who,s book or when but the article I read whatever powder gives the best speed in a long barrel will give the best speed in short too. And the short barrel should be more accurate as it is stiffer. As far as stabilizing twist is twist short or long. As far as liking the heavies maybe less velocity loss with a heavier bullet? I am not sure. Only factor in twist would be if the barrel was so short and not enough speed to get enough rpm. Then you would need a faster twist. [/QUOTE]
