[QUOTE="liltank, post: 636594, member: 13275"] I would go 1:10 in case you get the urge to shoot some heavies some time. The 1:11.25 is the military standard. It will work well with all bullet weights up to 200grn. You won't be disappointed in the 178 A-max. I played with it quite a bit a few years ago. I got some really good groups with them at short range, but that was when I was still teething on precision reloading. I could probably do better now. 11 degree crown should be all you need. Someone with a little better knowledge on that subject should chime in. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with your barrel choice and bullet choice. My problem is a choose a bullet, and then I start choosing other bullets, and before I know it, I have a shelf full of different bullets!!:D I'm so indecisive! I would have your barrel finish at .815-.875 at the muzzle. That should be about 2- 3# barrel. So figure that into your final build weight. [/QUOTE]
