[QUOTE="ACKLEY NUT, post: 260215, member: 12378"] I have a 6.5/06 AI with a Douglas Supreme 26" medium heavy chrome moly barrel in 1 in 9" twist. It really shoots 120 Nos B Tips. I am getting 3300fps with AA 3100 powder. .6 moa. @ 500yds (5) shots and 1" moa at 800yds (5) shots. I can't seem to get 130/140gr. bullets to perform that well. I think if you are going to shoot the heavier bullets you may need to go with a faster twist maybe a 1 in 8 1/2" or a 1 in 8" twist. I really like mine but if I had it to do over I would get a little faster twist. [/QUOTE]
