    Speaking from experience (think expensive, hard learnt lessons) use the slowest twist barrel that will stabilise the heaviest bullets that you intend to shoot. Using a faster twist where not required limits velocity & on occasion accuracy as well. The difference a faster twist makes on projectile expansion is sweet F#&k all!
