In keeping with constantly improving the rifle shooting experience and providing the most accurate information they have updated their recommended twist rates. The best way to determine accurate stability requirements for your bullet is to use the Berger Bullets Stability Calculator.
The new twist rate recommendations that Berger Bullets is offering are based on achieving optimal stability in nominal conditions. This means that the twist rates that they provide may seem conservative and the Berger recommendations for twist rates may be faster than what you actually need in your environment.
You can use slower twist rates and achieve good accuracy, but you may not get all of the BC out of your bullets. The twist rates are rounded down to the nearest whole number. To see all of the new twist rate recommendations you can download the Berger Bullets Quick Reference Sheet.
It is very important to remember that the best resource for understanding your bullet’s actual stability in your conditions is the Berger Stability Calculator. If you need assistance in using this powerful tool, please contact Berger Bullets at 714-441-7202 or TechSupport@bergerbullets.com.
