introducing innovative products and twist rates that work well with everything available,is far more conducive to selling more of your products..
The thing is no twist rate works well for everything. Most guns regardless of caliber or twist still require a person to find or work up the best load for it. The 1:20 is no different .If anything it was simply to far ahead of its time and now could very well be the right time to introduce it as an excellent choice. In the past I think the image of blackpowder was one of short range , 100 yards or less. Now blackpowder is coming into it's own as a viable long range gun. Therefore the
1:20 is marketable because it is a long range twist and more people are stretching the limits . That opens up an expanding market. If anything it could create a bigger market share by offering and developing bullets to market along with it. Bullets proven to be deadly and accurate in that twist.
