[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1431475, member: 7999"] I see no down side to the faster twist barrel particularly for a hunting rifle. The faster twist will help with terminal performance and allow you to run more options of bullets. Technically it should be a slower barrel but probably not enough to be able to tell that the rifle is slower. Probably within the margin of each rifle is a bit different. Some are faster than others. With all the different powders I really doubt that you will notice a lower vel. You might look at a 7" for the heavier bullets but I am with goring3006 that 130g or smaller is right for the Creed. Good luck with your new rifle. Steve [/QUOTE]
