[QUOTE="GMB54, post: 5437631, member: 15365"] Thats plain silly. White rifles used a 1-24 twist for 50cal and 1-20 for 45cal and shot conicals excellent. They were made to shoot conicals. How about the old Gibbs/Volunteer/ect type 45s with a fast twist. Sabots did not even exist back then. Numerous shooting matches where won with rifles like that shooting big soft lead. 50cal 1-28 can shoot conicals just fine. It usually not that its a conical. Its the load someone is putting behind it and the type of conical. Bullshop and NoExcuses offer excellent conicals that work just fine in a 1-28 or even faster twists. I would say my Knight 45cal 1-20 does far better than just OK. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/ApwGBUX.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/vh8gr5N.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
