[QUOTE="Wanfalt1, post: 1370207, member: 101097"] I think this needs to be resolved. I live at 7200feet above sea level. So I can't prove this. I shot a 22-250 IMP for a long time. It has a 14 twist. I shot it at 500 feet above sea level. I shot the Sierra 55 gr spritzer boat tails. Number 1365 Extremely accurate. I had a .223 12 twist shot the same bullet for years. I think you need to try out your theory, the 53 grain vmax, amax will shoot great in a 12 and probably a 14 twist. We live in a different mindset these days. I fully agree a faster twist with a heavy bullet works great. But saying a 53 grain .224 diameter bullet won't stabilize in a 12 twist is hard to believe. I have never shot it at sea level. So prove that this is wrong. I don't believe your conservative chart. Please don't take this as an insult. I am humbled everyday. I could be here. 500 feet shouldn't make a difference. Please accept this challenge as we all need an education! [/QUOTE]
