Rifle twist question

[K. Lane]

The other day I put up a post about which .25-06 was gonna be my next buy.
I had it narrowed down to ( in no particular order)

Weatherby vanguard deluxe
Win by model 70 featherweight
Tikka T3 hunter

Then some jack leg on here had to get me thinkin about a browning x bolt
Which I like but
The first 3 all have a 1:10 twist and the browning has a 1:10.5

My question is, with the slower twist rate, how much trouble will the browning have stabilizing the larger 115-120gr bullets

I shoot a 257 Roberts and had my barrel twist set at 1-9 for the very reason that I knew I wanted to shoot heavy for caliber bullets.

But, to answer you question, it "shouldn't" be an issue

[TacticalCowboy]

I would think it would be ok.

I don't think a half inch is going to matter.

My 257 Weatherby is 1:10. The Roberts is quite slower round. I still don't think .5 is going to make a difference. If it's that close then it's iffy anyway at 10.

You'll probably never see the difference

Are you shooting a standard secant ogive bullet or a elongated VLD style bullet? That's where this can becomes issue. With a CorLock or SGK type bullet the difference won't matter. If your going to shoot it long range ( say 500+) you may want to consider a faster rate of twist . 1/2" isn't a huge game changer but in some cases it's the difference of stabilizing or not. A Berger 115 VLD calls for a 1:10 minimum. With 1:9.3 being optimal. Once again if you go with more conventional factory hunting bullets any of the 4 will be just fine.

Thanks for the reply (thanks to all for the replies)
What you stated above is more or less in line with my train of thought..... I guess hearing someone else say it reconfirmed what I was thinkinh
