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..

Boy that's a hellava deal!!
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.
