Re: Standard 22LR rifling twist rate?

Thanks guys. Looks like 1-9 twist is a bit tight for what I have planned, but OUGHT to work. Just need to put it on paper to REALLY find out. BTW, the lead that I'm making the Lyman 225438 44gr LRN bullets out of is 1-16 alloy, which should be soft enough to mushroom at about 1k fps.
