Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters Barnes bullets in fast twist barrels

I can tell you that a 120 grain Hornady GMX out of a 6.5 Creedmoor with a 1 in 8 twist expands violently and seems to kill out of proportion to the mild recoil of the cartridge.

So I think fast twists are a good idea with monolithic bullets,they are not going to come apart like varmit bullets,and the rapid spin can't hurt expansion.
