To me it is interesting that Knight decided to go with a faster twist with the 52 instead of with the other calibers. Doc White correctly increased the twist rate as the caliber decreased in size. I wonder why Knight is so stuck on a 1 in 28 inch twist in their 50 caliber barrels. Is the changeover to a faster twist so expensive that it makes it cost prohibitive to change or at least offer a choice or is it just stubborness?
