    .308- 1:10 twist rate- are 150gr bullets hopeless?

    Getting my 308 rebarreled its an 18.5" 1:10 twist barrel. Most of my bullets are 150gr- what are the effects on twist rate. Is it a definite thing that 150gr bullets will suck as I hear these 1:10 are best with the heavier pills

    Gunsmithing Twist rate for 110 gr 308?

    1 in 12? 1 in 14? Got a bunch of 110 gr Hornady TAP available. The faster twist barrels don't like it much. They are much happier with the 168 gr.

    375 CHEY TAC twist rate

    I have a question, It seems that either shooters are using a 11.5 or 8 twist barrel in their 375 chey tac rifles. It appears that all bullets made for the chey tac are solids; therefore, there is no core stripping occuring. What is the disadvantage of just going with an 8 twist?

    Effect of twist rate on velocity

    Can anyone give me an idea of how much velocity I should expect to lose shooting the same load through a 16" 1:7 barrel as opposed to a 1:12 tube of the same length? I'm only getting 2650fps. from Sierra 55gr HPBTs over 26gr of W748 out of my Sig 556.

    Question: twist rate for .338 bullets

    I'm curious about the proliferation of 1:9.4" and 1:9.3" twist rate that is commonly suggested for .338's; 300 grain bullets in particular. Everyone agrees that the 1:10" <span style="font-style: italic">works</span>, but then there are those who will chime in and say a 1:9.4" or 9.3" works...
