I did some digging and it looks like that Cooper could be twisted 1:9.

You’ll need to figure out how it’s throated, twisted, and the mag’s max COAL.

I’m at a COAL of 3.7”

For the real heavyweights you’ll likely need a 1:8 twist. Check out Berger’s online stability calc.

Thanks for the info. I’m just getting tooled up. Will be a bit until I can afford the scope I want. It’s full on winter here anyhow. This will be a fun spring project. I also don’t mind the 1-9” twist. That should do fine for a lot of good bullets. I have some 165 Gamechangers and 162 ELDX’s to try..
