[QUOTE="allard_msu76, post: 927058, member: 26957"] My factory barrel is history... (And tickled pink about it) I am having my smith install on my 7 Rum 700 Lefty action a 28" Lilja #6 1 in 9 barrel with straight fluting, finished with a ASP med Painkiller brake. He is blueprinting the action and I am sending Twisted Barrels my bolt to be spiral fluted and fitted with tactical bolt knob. I am setting it in a Bobby Hart LRT laminate stock. Out of the factory barrel I shot the Berger 168's and the Nosler 160 accubonds (most experience with the Accubonds, taking down elk out to 800 consistently). I have 2 boxes of the 180 Bergers as well. My question is this; should I get a Wyatts extended box mag while I'm at it? And also what would I gain going to the larger 180's or should I stick with the 160-168's? I have talked with my smith about these issues and all I'm seeking out here are second opinions from veterans who have gone down this road many times before. My purpose is to take game past 1k and targets even further. Also I have searched many threads for this info but you know how broad of results you can get. This is my first re-barrel and although I want the most bang for my buck I don't want to miss anything :D Thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
