257 Accubonds - Twist required
Hello Guys

I'm interested to hear if a 1 in 10 twist will stablise the 110 gn 257 accubond at 257 Roberts velocities - I didn't realise how long these boolits are !!

They will work fine with either a 10 or 12 twist.

A 10 twist is preferable in the Roberts.

I was getting a 1" group with AB's last time out. I think they'll do better than that though. I wasn't shooting all that well at the time.

edited to add: oh yeah, my rifle is a 1-10 twist.


Regards,

Robert

115 gr Ballistic Tips work fine with a 1-10 twist, so I see no reason that the lighter Accubond would not.
