I gotta ask, how far do you intend to shoot those pills? I stand by my first post regarding how those bullets will probably be alright at 100, but not very good at 400. Stability and accuracy wise from your 9 twist..

Stability actually increases as the bullet travels downrange and loses linear velocity faster than it loses rotational velocity.



Thats been my experience as well. If they are stable and group at 100 yards they are stable and group accordingly at 400 or 500 yards
