[QUOTE="Tree Trimmer, post: 650746, member: 716"] meaning, it eases into the spin of the bullet, instead of going straight to a faster one. on heavier rounds, using a faster twist, it doesn't go straight to fast spin. it actually pushes straight through the rifleing, a fraction of a inch, then starts to spin. this both marrs the rifleing on the barrel, and puts burrs on the bullet, and/or gives you crooked striations. also when it pushes through the start of the rifling, it scrapes material off, and the material on the bullet has to go somewhere. it usually pushes straight out the back. throwing the balance off. i don't know a better way of describing it, and that one kind of sucked. you just have to be able to picture in your head what happens when the bullet instantly spins like it's supposed to, compared to traveling into the barrel a fraction of a inch THEN starting to spin. i suppose, think of a nut and a bolt. push the bolt straight into the nut a threads worth, then start to turn it. same general principal. you will peel a thread off, straight back on the bolt, and then still expect it to turn with the extra material there. the nut(barrell) won't last long, and the bolt(bullet) will be all fked up when it gets to the other end, and your still expecting it to fly true. all of which affect flight characteristics.
