School me on AR15 twist rate

So I'm just learning about the benefits of each twist rate and what weight bullet will be best for each twist rate.

From what I've learned, the slower the twist rate (1:7) the better it will stabilize heavier bullets. The faster the twist rate (1:9) the better it will stabalize the lower weight rounds.

What about 1:8 twist? What are the benefits of a 1:8 twist compared to the others?

Thanks for any info
