40 and under a 1 in 12 will be right unless you are shooting a slow round. Larry

Default 1/11 if

If you want the option to shoot 40 V max get 1/11. I think most 1/12 will shoot a 39 Blitzking pretty well, the 40 Vmax not so well. My 1/11 Criterion barrels shoot a 40 Vmax Very well. sgtg out

I have two 1-10 and they shoot as accurate as anyone could want. The 40 Vmax really shine past 300 yards.

I have two .20 practicals, one with 1-11 and one with 1-10 and they both shoot the 40s accurately.

I believe you got your answer, so I hope you don't mind this question.

When I started shooting my first small bore guns, I bought 3 remington 700's in 204 ruger. I believe I re-found this website and saw that everyone was discussing the issues with the 39 grain Blitzking's not stabilizing, but the Nosler and Vmax 40 grain's were stabilizing in peoples 204 factory remington rifles.

Is my memory incorrect? I know some said , possibly, that the remington tubes might not be exactly 1:12 as an excuse for why the 40 grain bullets worked, while the 39's didn't.

Default 11 twist.

The Pac-nor 1-11 shot both the 40 and 32 grain v-maxes very well from a 20-222 for me. If you are thinking at all about using 40's it seem like it is better to be safe.
