[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1861171, member: 93895"] I think you made a great choice in the barrel length & twist that you chose. I have a 26" 9.5 twist. In hind sight, I would have chosen what you did. I firmly believe that the 300 Norma is most ideal in a 28" or longer barrel. I worked up a modest load for 230 atips with 84.3gr retumbo @ 2930. I can go faster but muzzle blast becomes unpleasant when I get around 3000fps or more. I think your 28" will get you a little farther away from the muzzle & releave you from the blast much better. I'm fairly happy with my load, but I will go 28" if I rebarrel. [/QUOTE]
