[QUOTE="Aussie, post: 10823, member: 2447"] I've got a 9 inch twist in my .243 Ackley . It shoots tiny groups with the 70 gn Nosler BT and also the 95 Berger VLD . OK with the 55 Nosler . I heard stories about bullets flying to pieces at high velocity in 8 inch twists which is why I went with 9 . That could be BS . According to Berger if you want to shoot the 105 / 107 VLD's you need 8 inch although with the velocity of a 6/06 9 inch might do it . Forget the 12 inch twist unless you want to shoot light pills that are going to get blown around at long ranges . [/QUOTE]
