[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2286950, member: 10755"] Well, the ONLY advantage going to a 8” twist is to run heavy for calibre bullets. It makes zero difference to everything else, even a 120g will still work in a 8” twist. People believe you can over-stabilise a bullet, not true, you can spin a bullet so fast that it is pulled apart by centrifugal forces, but it’s still stable up to that point. There is only stable or unstable with bullets. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
