Optimum twist rate for 221 Fireball?
« on: February 22, 2014, 09:34:04 PM »
I am posting this in several forums at once, so please excuse me if you see it more than once.

Does anybody know or have any experience with 221 Fireball regarding the best twist rate for the widest range of bullet weights in a 22" rifle barrel?  I have not found any definitive answers, as most I have read concentrate on this cartridge in handgun length barrels.  As I understand, that length makes a difference along with bullet shape and velocity.

Any help would be appreciated.  Comments, opinions, and outright laughing/ridicule will be accepted. :D
