    rifleing type and rate makes a difference to your bc. A rough finish will cause bc to drop as will cases not deburred causing scraps on the jacket.

    Interesting. I had a play with my ballistic app, and as far as I can see, spin drift for various twist rates differ so little that you can't make 1/4 moa or 0.1 mil adjustments for it unless you are shooting beyond 1000 yds.

    I'd imagine that rifling type would be of the same or even smaller order of magnitude.

    Beyond a 1000 yds it really does get into the black art side of things
