Twist rate

For calculating twist rate, here is something to consider:

Keep in mind BC specs from bullets manufactures are usually for typical supersonic velocities. Sierra provides the info for lower velocities.

This is some very good information guys, I really appreciate it. Since I bought my first can I have fallen in love with suppressed shooting. It is a completely different experience to be able to have a normal conversation while enjoying target practice / plinking with a friend or even wife. I have a YHM 7.62 SS can at my dealer waiting on form four. My guess is I have another 10 weeks or so to go. I really do not know which weapon to start with, AR, Contender, or Rem 700 bolt gun. I of course want all three but they are not free. I see advantages to each and I have never had a contender pistol so am not sure how well I would be able to shoot it compared to a weapon with a stock so I am leaning towards the bolt gun. PDC custom has a great folding stock for the Rem 700 with a detachable magazine so that is probably what I will do first. Any thoughts / comments? Thanks Guys

I run a THM Phantom on a new 300 Whisper, I like the combination, nice and quiet.

Working out loads now. Good luck with the build.
