Idk my 1:8 Wilson barrel shoots 77gr smk beautifully on a 4inch gong at 300 yards. My 55gr fmj loads shoot just under moa with it as well. Pretty tough to beat.

Has absolutely nothing to do with the point I'm made. If it wasn't for the Army and DoD penny pinchers the 1:9 twist would be the mil-spec. We would have also fielded a better round than M855 too. 1:7 twist isn't necessary and worse, degrades the potential accuracy for pretty much anyone. 1:8 twist is ok, but again you are only going to really benefit by it with heavy match bullets. The AMU uses 1:8 twist custom barrels but they are shooting 600 yds with 80gr SMKs that probably run a COAL that wouldn't fit in a STANAG magazine too.
