Hi guys,
This is my first time on here so hi to you all.
I am about to order a custom build rifle, it will be a Sako 75 action in a Mc Millian A5 stock with a 26" Krieger barrel, chambered in .243 Akley.
I want the gun to shoot as flate as possible to shoot foxes. I will be using either 55gr, 65gr or 70gr bullets (I will see what it and I like best) I am hoping to get the muzzle fps up to around 4000 fps.
My question is what would be the best barrel twist rate to shoot these light bullests, am I right in thinking a 1-12 would be about right?
Thanks from the UK
