Rifle Twist Rate (Greenhill)Archery & Ballistics

Calculate the optimal barrel rifling twist rate needed to stabilize a bullet of a given length, caliber, and velocity.

Parameters & Inputs

Formula values are estimated for target shooting, olympic competitive setups, and civilian hunting ballistics profiles. Actual outdoor wind resistance, drag deviations, and atmospheric temperature changes may alter exact values.

Computed Technical Performance
Optimal Rifling Twist Rate (1 turn in)1:10.0"

Represents the barrel distance (inches) required for bullet to complete one full radial rotation.

Greenhill Formula Stability Assessment
Slow twist rate. Best suited for short, lightweight flat-base round projectiles.

Barrel rifling twist rate must accurately match caliber and bullet lengths. Under-stabilized bullets may tumble, while over-stabilized light bullets may wobble.
