    will a 1:10 handle them? using Berger jackets could be same as Berger .5 105 requires 1:8

    speculation only
    Real guns start with the number 3 or bigger and make two holes, one in and one out

    For the .243? I believe its .460 for the 105s and .450 for the 95s.
    If you want to try a few I have spares here, I settled on the 95gns.

    Think he makes two types for different rates of twist

    Difference in speed over a known distance is pretty much the result of BC so yep.
