[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2884569, member: 116181"] Lilja will do a 3 groove 7 twist in .277 but only a 7.5 in 6.5mm. KS Arms in Canada says they'll go as fast as a 6.5 twist in anything from 20 cal to 50 cal. Very popular barrel with ELR guys right now. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.ksarms.com/barrel-blank/barrel-blank[/URL] PacNor uses buttons so they normally cut abnormally fast twists (4 twist 308 cal anyone?), but they don't have a 6.5mm faster than 7". Off topic time, but since Steve is here - PacNor did a 6 twist 36" 308 cal blank for me that is going to send a 101gn Hammer into orbit at Mach Jesus when I get it screwed on 🤣 I'll be aiming at the 100 yard line but likely won't have a clue where they're headed once they're out! The real purpose is 240gn CEs that require a 6 twist on paper, even with the stupid velocity I'll get from the long tube and 300 LIMP chamber. Hopefully I'll twist a jacket in half on a 245 Berger EOL and will be able to say I found the end of the road for cup and core. My hunting load will most likely be a 124HH a case of Trail Boss, probably good to mimic a mild 30-06 load of at least 3000 FPS. 🤣 [/QUOTE]
