[QUOTE="grwd, post: 111416, member: 459"] 1:7" twist is optimal for 62gr bullets, and the heavier 70-77gr bullets will work well with them also. USUALLY, the 1:7" barrels are preferred for an M4gery build, because of their ability to shoot the more current heavy military ball ammo, like that black hills 77gr. stuff. -but out of a shorter barrel, like 10.5", youre not necessarily going for high accuracy anyway, so use what ya got. -usually 1:9" twist barrels are cheaper and would work fine. And Im guessing that a slower twist could prolong a barrels life, if you plan on wearing it out. [/QUOTE]
