    Had some, useful slightly further out as I recall BUT twist was apparently only half the story. John Herbert told me that he had visited the Aguila plant and they were using the .22 Short line to make the 60gr .22lr ammo. Consequently, some of the propellant was being shaken out of the cases before the bullets were inserted!
    A good shot at close range beats a 'hit" at a longer range.
