People who tell you that a twist will stabilize a certain "Weight", either don't know what they are talking about, or are making a huge generality with a lot of ASSumptions.
I guess I'm one of those ignorant asses. I'm not a math /physics wizz, but assuming the bullet caliber (and design type) remains constant, how do you increase the length without increasing the weight and bearing surface? And related to that, my understanding is that it is possible to "overtwist" a lightweight --errr shorter?--bullet so that it can become more structurally unstable.
