I know that a bullet will not stabilize and shoot accurately from a twist rate which is too slow.
But what about a twist rate which is a little fast for the bullet weights used, will this cause accuracy problems?
I am having a bench pistol barrel made for a .30 caliber cartridge firing light rifle bullets under 140 grains. Recommended twist is 1:12". I was thinking that if someday I decide I want to re-chamber that barrel for .308 with heavier bullets, maybe I should start with a faster twist, like 1:11 or even 1:10. I however don't want to use the faster twist if I will sacrifice accuracy at lighter weights like 135gr.
Thanks
