The lightest Accumax .402 is 1.27" long and i highly doubt it will shoot in slower than a 1-22. Slight chance in a 1-24 but i doubt it.

Its not the weight its the length. Them Dead Center are shorter. 1.27" long is very long for a 40cal bullet. 40-250gr Fury is barely under an inch long.

Not only does projectile weight come into play when choosing twist rate, more importantly comes the consideration of projectile length. 1 in 22 would probably be the slowest twist for the AccuMax .402” 225 get to stabilize. |

And the slower it shoots the faster the twist needed.

What is the length of the 40-225gr not including the tip? JBM's tip variable is for plastic so its not 100% reliable when talking about aluminum tips.
