That's what my thought as well. The 1-9" should handle the 105 AMAX with little problem as Mule Deer pointed out, the faster twist being discussed would not be a detriment for the masses who will use this rifle as they don't shoot at long enough distances to even notice the potential advantages (longer distances) to see the difference (advantages) being discussed here. Regardless of whether the 1-8" twist will give the long distance shooters the leg up they state they will see, 95% of these rifles potential market, probably would never see it's advantage under 600 yards to take advantage of the even faster yet twist they state it would. Heck, I think the twist rates stated for the 260 were 1-8" and that newer 26 Nosler too has a 1-8" twist, so if long distance shooters plan on buying one of these LAW rifles, LAW certainly twisted them correctly with 1-8" twists on those rifles anyway.
