[QUOTE="Steve Shelp, post: 24673, member: 22"] Brent, Because it's a flatbase bullet it's very short for a 187gr bullet. So it doesn't take as tight of a twist as a 180 or 190gr class BT bullet. Plus the speed is up on them also being that they are mostly being shot out of the same case. But the bullet length is the biggest factor for using the slower twist. Littletoes, I'll look through all my pictures. I don't know if I have any of just the bullet itself though. If not I can get some. But it really looks like a VLD hollow point bullet without a boattail. Nothing spectacular really. Unless you see what they do on paper... Steve [/QUOTE]
