How much difference would there be between a 16" barrel with a 1:7.5 or a 1:8 twist. I see some manufacturers make 1:7.5 barrels, some make 1:8 for the 16" barrels.
By difference I mean accuracy and velocity.
Thanks.

Did government credibility die of Covid or with Covid?

Thanks for that link. I was really wondering why Precision Firearms has all their barrels from 16-24" with 1-8" twist. There has to be some logic here; why there is such a difference of opinions between manufacturers ?
