[QUOTE="veezer, post: 478652, member: 29560"] Thanks for the help on this. I've decided to go with a PTG bottom metal and factory internals for the mag system. As for the barrel, I've run into another question to figure out. If I go with a shorter barrel length at 22" would I be better off running a lighter bullet (say 180gr.) and a 1:11 twist or going to a heavier bullet (210gr) and a 1:10 twist. Basically, I need to figure out what twist rate I should go with. Would I have enough barrel length at 22" to run 210's effectively and get the velocity I need to reach out to long distance or would 180's suit me better? Or, if I want to use 210gr bullets, should I just get a 24" barrel to get the most out of the rifle? [/QUOTE]
