From science. Lol
I never said a rifle with a fast rate wouldn't shoot, of course it can. What was asked was why are there still slow twist barrels on the market.
To prove any formula, we'd have to swap out your barrel for a slower twist chambered exactly as your last, but lets be honest, that's not reasonable.
But if we did, do you also believe as someone else posted, that if we put on a 1:14 that you'd only be shooting 4010 FPS? Tighter twist, more friction is imparted on the barrel and projectile. What's it mean on paper? Maybe nothing, but maybe something.

I’ve run light bullets in fast twist barrels at over 4000 FPS with ZERO problems. Am I just lucky?
