[QUOTE="sedancowboy, post: 1697290, member: 85874"] Brian Litz Has written about the effects of a faster twist barrel on velocity. His conclusion was that it has a very minimal effect. As I recall about 5 fps per inch of twist less velocity. I have found that the 1-8 twist does a better job of stabilizing the 150 gr bullets as well as the 170s. Don't be afraid to try the 130s-140s. We are having really good luck with the 145 ELD-Xs in a 1-8 if you don't need the 170s. [/QUOTE]
