Most forget the reasons for going to the 1/7 twist was to give back a bit of range to the short barreled M-4 and like, as well as to adequately stablise the new 77 gr ammo coming on line. My self, I like using the longer and heavier hunting ammo and needed most stabilization then the 1/9 twist gives these! I have a Rem 40X with a .223 chambered heart barrel with a 1/9 twist and it hates any thing bigger then 55 gr ammo! When I tried heavier, I would see signs of pressure increases, and the accuracy went to heck.
