I know this has been discussed before but when I did a search a lot of the info was over 10 years old... so assuming a lot of shooting and testing has been done in that time, I'm going to ask
What twist would you recommend for a 338 EDGE running 250 - 270 grain bullets?
I'm planning a hunting rifle that will be a repeater with a 3.8" mag length and shooting 250 gr to 270 gr bullets. (250 Game King - 250 Partition - 270 gr ELD X)
I'm sure a 10 twist will work BUT is a 9.5 or even a 9 twist better? Is there ANY disadvantage to using a 9 twist? I doubt that you could over spin a bullet that heavy but I might be wrong.
Please give me your opinions -
Thank you!
