[QUOTE="3006savage, post: 248946, member: 12069"] Dano I am planning the same build this spring but with a Savage action in a 28" Shilen Select barrel. I am going with the same Light Varmint contour and a 1:9 twist. The 1:9 twist will work great on your 120 and 130s as Berger recommends the 1:9 twist even for their 140s and they are pretty long bullets. I plan on shooting a lot and thought for $20 extra the 28" finish length would allow me to set back the barrel if the throat is shot out. I am topping mine with the Bushnell elite 4000 with 4 x 16 magnification. [/QUOTE]
