.22 calYeah what caliber are you talking about. It makes a difference.
no it's. 22 calAre you asking about .243/6mm ?
Ok. So what do you think? Can I shoot a 80gr bullet that says its for 1:12 twist out of my AR that's 1:7 twistThe problem with going to a fast twist is the possibility of centrifugal force damaging the bullet at higher velocities. Whereas the stabilizing twist can be calculated, each bullet type has unique construction that will effect its ability to resist centrifugal force damage.
Yep, where did you see that? No way 1 in 12 stabilizes an 80 Gr bullet in .22 caliber.It will do ok.
What 80 gr .224 claims to be stabilized in 12 twist?
Nosler 80gr competitionIt will do ok.
What 80 gr .224 claims to be stabilized in 12 twist?
Nosler 80gr competition
They will not stabilize in 1:7 twist. faster twists are for long bullets with more bearing surface.Nosler 80 gr bullets a box of 250 count competition says this bullet is rated for a 1:12 twist. Well I wanna shoot it out of my AR which is a 1:7 twist.
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm not sure if this is a wink wink situation.....They will not stabilize in 1:7 twist. 1:7 is designed for long bullets with more bearing surface.
It isn't the bearing surface it is the total length, boattails and spitzer points count too. I see there is some ballistic calculation accommodation for plastic points, though.
