Mule Deer wrote an excellent article about twist in the current "Sports Afield." One of his conclusions was that twists nowadays are faster. There is little danger of over stabilizing short bullets because bullets are more precise (mass is not off center) than in the past.
Years ago, I was taught or read that 110 grain bullets were not accurate in a 30-06 with its 1-10 twist, presumably because they were "over stabilized." The one load I worked up did not, IIRC, have this problem.
Can we conclude that with current bullets it is possible to achieve about the same accuracy with 110 grain bullets as with 150, 165, or 180 grain bullets? Does anyone shoot 110 grain bullets in 30-06 or .300 magnums?
