Best rate of twist for .024 Ruger? Looking at bullets of 45 gr and up, 1:9 or 1:12 twist?

  How reliable are the rate of twist calculators? Are they accurate? I am unsure if the equations are correct but can someone verify?

  plug in the variables and it can calculate the rate of twist required for the stabilization.
  
  Thanks

  instrumentofwar,
  
  The longer (heavier) 55 grain bullets need the 1:9" twist.
  
  Best.
