[QUOTE="TAZMAN, post: 3094954, member: 1708"] I am building a new 6mm Creedmoor on a savage action that I had in the safe. I sold the barrels I had, and I am doing a 24 inch 1-7 or 1-8 twist. My gunsmith has both barrels in stock, and I will have it diamond fluted. Yes I know....why a Savage action....no one wanted to buy the gun so I am building a twin to my 308. That being said, I have researched the heck out of the twist rates, and it appears a 1-7.5 twist is preferred for the 107-115 bullets? I have 500-105 Bergers but may switch to the 108 ELDM or something a little heavier? Is the best option just to order a 1-7.5 or stay with the 1-8 twist? [/QUOTE]
