Anyone have any experience with a 1/9 twist barrel and 300 gr. SMK, Scenar, or bergers. I was just wondering if anyone has shot these bullets with that twist. What was the results? i just dont want to over spin them!

It's pretty tough to overspin a bullet, unless you are talking the little light jacketed varmint bullets.
Considering 1:10 or 1:11 is the common twist when shooting 250's, I see no harm in a 1:9 with 300's. That being said, my 1:10 shoots 300's just fine.

There are several folks running 1:9.2 or 1:9.5 twists with the 300's in .338 Lapua. Improved really should make any difference.

Shouldn't be much of an issue. They're heavy enough that it would be really tough to overspin them.
