[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1397764, member: 33159"] Lambo you're going to love this caliber. I had a 24" barrel, but completely torched it since I shot this rifle so much. It's getting rebarreled as we speak with a 26"+ brake barrel. As 7STW said, this rifle really shines with a minimum 26" barrel. That being said, it will still shoot great with a 24" barrel, just don't expect to obtain the velocity of all the published data out there (I was typically 50-100 fps less). My rifle absolutely loved the 140gr E-tip and 150gr LRAB & 150 gr Barnes TTSX. Shot them into tiny bug holes. It shot the 160gr Accubond at 0.5 moa and the 175 gr Partition around 0.7 moa. My 1:9.25 twist would NOT stabilize the 175gr ELDX. For Powders, the 140gr loved RL25, while everything else loved H1000. RL26 and Retumbo are other options. [/QUOTE]
