[QUOTE="bulletbill, post: 412956, member: 12005"] If you're going to lob 80gr bullets you're going to be in the 1:8 range. Douglas make a fine barrel. 5-600 shouldn't be to god-aweful difficult with a fast twist, you can still develop plenty of speed. Loading with 80's it will be single shot only, once I got over 70gr in mine I was never able to load to mag length. But what's the fun in that??? Your biggest problem and I'm sure the hint will come across when you place the order, make sure whoever chambers the barrel understands what your plans are for the gun. Hopefully they'll use a reamer with a little more freebore. [/QUOTE]
