[QUOTE="simmonzz, post: 2298071, member: 118783"] Rather than start a new thread I figured I'd ask all of your guys' opinion on the new situation. I sold the deviant barreled action because I couldn't find a magnum bolt and became set on running a magnum. I have since ordered a Tenacity with a magnum bolt should arrive tomorrow. I can order a brand new 16.5" proof carbon 6.5mm 7.5 twist for $700 shipped or I can pick up a 20" proof carbon 6.5mm 8 twist for $550 shipped. I didn't really want to run a 20" barrel because I'll have a can on it. I was pretty set on 16.5" or maybe 18".. the plan is to run 6.5prc because I think it's just gonna be the easier route considering saum brass is hard to find. 6.5 saum and 6.5 prc are the top contenders I'm looking at. Another thing I'm unsure of is if running a 16.5, 18, or 20" barrel requires a faster powder? I have no experience with these cartridges [/QUOTE]
