View Full Version : 69's & a fast twist?

Is anyone shooting 69gr bullets from a 1/7 twist? I know 1/9 is optimal, but since having my barrel re-chambered I need to go to a shorter/lighter bullet due to a shorter throat. I think it will be OK, but I've never shot a lighter bullet through a faster twist. Any chance of spinning the jacket off a Nosler 69gr CC?

M4's shoot 62grainers in their 7"twist... You'll be just fine !
Have you tried the 70 & 75gr Berger VLD target bullets ? They have a shorter bearing surface and might work well in your shorter freebore.
I shoot the 53 gr vmax in my 1-7 barrel u will be fine
