[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1279171, member: 1521"] The window defined from unstable to blowing up bullets is dependent on cartridge/bullet/twist combination. It is complicated, but affects very few shooters -because it takes a lot of efforts to put yourself in an extreme one side or the other. It's very easy to watch this window by watching those with 22-243 wildcats, shooting 90gr bullets. Here they have the energy to destroy bullets with twists too tight. And yet, their bullets are often marginally stable in any slower twists. This, severely narrowing their bullet and shooting condition choices. I don't know what your cartridge is, or what specific bullets you want to use(beyond weight), so there is no way to to take a stab at solution for you. [/QUOTE]
