[QUOTE="Mike D Texas, post: 2430238, member: 71221"] Assuming 3100fps with a 180 grain bullet with 8 twist he will be under the 300,000 rpm threshold (279,000 calculated). My 6.5-284 shoots 3072fps with 140 Bergers with an 8 twist barrel (276,480 rpm) and I haven’t had any issues with bullets coming apart. I believe the jacket is likely thick enough on most medium/big game hunting bullets that there won’t be a problem with them coming apart. [/QUOTE]
