[QUOTE="CHARLIEDUECE65, post: 492094, member: 15083"] Thanks for the info guys. One day I will do a 22 br or improved variant with a fast twist for the heavy bullets, but now I am going to stick with the 223 ai or the 22-204. I'm leaning again towards the 22-204. This rifle is going to be a carry rifle with a light contour barrel not a heavy varmit gun, and I don't shoot an enormous amount of rounds per year. I all ready have an HS ADL stock, and a 4.4x14x40 leupold scope with target turrets on it. What bullet weight is optimum for the 9 twist at 223ai/22-204 velocities? Alf that is the picture I saw of the rounds on the other site. What is the optimum barrel length for these rounds. The number 3 contour can be finished at 26" length but krieger recommended to finish at 24". The stock barrel is 24" and that seems ok to me wondering if going a few inches shorter would hurt.
