On the theory of twist. The greater the rate of twist the slower a bullet can travel and still maintain stability. Well that's the theory. A rifle is a lot like a women. No two are the same and they do unpredictable things for no reason other than they can.

The great thing about reloading is the ability to control the loads for your specific rifle. By adjusting the load you can find the sweet spot. And this includes everything from resizing the case to the type and amount of crimp you put on the bullet.
Bullet placement is more important than velocity. What good is an extra 30fps when you miss the mark? Have a look at your local range. They or a member will have a chronograph. Just make 101% sure you don't put a bullet through it. Find a load that your rifle likes and gives the desired grouping. Then start adjusting the velocity if you want to.
