The minimum twist that will stabalize the SSS is 1-10. I have tried the SSS in several standard guns (1-16 twist) and they will shoot OK at short distance only. I built a 1-12 gun to shoot then, due to that being the fastest twist liner I could find, still no go.

For Silhouette shooting they will take the Field Pistol ram down at 100 yards. If they would shoot at 75 yeads, they would be the ticket.

I have not seen the 1-9 twist barrel reported by EncoreBilly. The 1-9 twist would certinly do the job.

One has to remember that the SSS is a social round and not intended for use over 10 feet.
