I own a 35 Whelen Remington 700 CDL with the 1:16 twist barrel. Will the 1:16 twist rate stabilize the Barnes 200 grain TSX???? I thought I would ask before spending the $40 for a box of 50. Thanks Paint | ||

Probably. I have two Whelens (Rem. 700 Classic and Ruger 77RS)with the 1 in 16" twist and both will stabilize bullets up to 250 gr. Paul B. | |||

It'll be fine, the 1:16" will handle projectiles beyond 250gr, although in a Whelen the 310gr Woodleigh may be a bit touch and go beyond 150m. Tradition (and practicallity) says a Whelen should have a 1:12" ... but the 1:16" will work for the vast majority of uses the Whelen is put to. Cheers... Con | |||

Hi David, Thanks for the e-mail. There should be no problem in the .358 200 grain TSX stabilizing in your 1-16" twist barrel. Ensure the future of our freedoms...take a child hunting or shooting.
