Milu,

You have a couple of factors in the twisting. One is the torque as the bullet engages the rifling. I know some smart benchresters have mathematically de-bunked this on their rifles but I’m not so sure. Try a 3” S&W 29 w/ Magnport. Shoot heavy 300 grain, heavy 180 grain, and light loads. Notice the torque difference.

Also just the mechanical reaction of the pistol in your hand, it’s uneven compared to say a ransom rest.

S/F, FOG

I always put it's torque effect down to the double spring.

I think one of these would be interesting to have. Swiss copy of the AK in 223.

I gotta a question for you guys..... I have a custom full size Caspian in 10mm auto. I was thinking on changing out the barrel with a .40s&w, what do you think??? and yes I know I can shoot .40 through it now, but if I do so eventually it will cause some damage to the chamber.....any thoughts....

Future,

You can have another barrel fit in .40 S&W. Just interchange, easy as taking the barrel and recoil spring in and out.
