    1.105 and 1.09 were the lengths i found Litz mentions the second one, so yes you are on the limit. Try them at 100, then repeat it at 200 or 300 that will soon show if they are becoming unstable in flight. Gyroscopic stability depends on rate of spin so as the bullet slows the rpms do too.
    Happy experimentation!
