I guess the idea is that you first decide on the intended purpose of the rifle followed by the average bullet weight that you intend to use, then you choose a twist rate that best suits that bullet weight.

Waidmannsheil.




Then why not just pick a calibre best suited to the weight range in the first place?

eg .338 - 160 to 200 gr range, choose a .30 calibre

eg .338 - 220 to 250 gr range, natural range of a .338.

Unless of course a compromise rifling twist range is possible.

I wonder. If a lighter bullet was longer than normal would the slower twist rate stabilise it?

eg .375 - normal range is 236 gr to 300 gr (or 350 gr).

If one wanted to say shoot a 180 gr projectile in the .375, if it was say made to a greater length, ie say longer than a normal 235 or 250 gr projectile, would it still stabilise?

Just out of theoretical interest.
