[QUOTE="cowboy, post: 368900, member: 8833"] Have 2 ea. of the 280AI's in the family. Both are running 25" Kreiger barrels with a 1-10" twist. Both shoot the 168 Berger's extremely well - have not tried the AB or others. One rifle was broke in using 139 gr. plain jane Hornady interlocks while fire forming brass. Have used the 154 gr. interlock and it shoots very well. Long story short - if you see that the 168 berger's would be the heaviest bullet you will use, in my opinion the 1-10 twist works well as it will also allow the lighter bullets to stabilixe as well. If you think you'll want to move up to the 180 gr. I'd seriously consider going at least with a 1-9" twist. Be happy to add anything - just send me a PM. [/QUOTE]
