Thread: 223 twist rates

Mine is 1:9 (standard twist for Savage), from memory it was ok with the 77smk but wouldn't stabilise the 75amax when I tried heavier stuff. Expected the 75amax to be marginal though as its longer than the 77smk.

Now getting great accuracy with Hornady 53vmax for smaller critters and 68bthp for bigger ones (though I have taken a fallow buck with a 53vmax neck shot).
