Jean, this bullet weight will work well in either 1 in 7 or 1 in 8 Twist Rate Barrels. 1 in 9 is no issue as well. Cheers and stay safe!

Jean, for 62 grain 1:8 twist would be best. Normally 1:9 twist is 40-55 grain, 1:8 twist is 55-68 grain, and 1:7 twist is 68-75 grain. With that said I have a 1:9 twist that shoot Hornady 73 grain eld match ammo quite well. So don't be scared to try different weights in any twist ratio. Hope this helps.
