i just had a thought, that i do not know the answer to. a no-lead bullet, like barnes's x-bullet, or any other one for that matter, is going to be longer for the same weight than a jacketed lead bullet will be. will that extra length require a different twist rate than a standard bullet? i like to use fairly heavy bullets, so a solid alloy bullet would be pretty long compared to a standard bullet. (22-243-25-30-45 calibers) i kind of get the twist rate to bullet weight thing for standard bullets, i was just wondering if the same holds true for alloy bullets or not with their extra length? or if the twist rate is strictly designated to weight rather than length.
