Twist 400NE ?
      #87114 - 14/10/07 07:49 PM

Hi,

I am in the process of ordering 2 barrels from Krieger for my 450/400 3" project.
Standart twist seems to be 1:14" probably used in 405Win? Would it be worth ordering 1:12" twist to be used with 400grain bullets?
Maybe someone here has a 400grs. .411 bullet and could give me the length of said so I could do the math on my own!

Best regards
Stig

Woodleigh Weldcore RNSN 400gr .411 bullet is 1.3 inch or 33 mm.

CIP standard twist for .450/.400 3" is 1 in 15", not 1 in 14".

Gentlemen,

Thank You very much!
Guess I will be safe with the 1:14" from Krieger.


God speed
Stig
