[QUOTE="Ted Evans, post: 1521885, member: 108085"] That is great feedback, thanks for the response. I live at 6000 feet and shoot between 6000 and 10000 feet depending on where I go. I suspect I could probably get away with slower twist barrel but I selected an 8 twist on the chance I wanted to play with 230 Berger’s or the new Sierras. Also, if I cut the barrel to 22” I figured that fast twist would help stabilization in a short tube. You are correct about my concerns about having too short of a barrel. I guess I am weighing the trade off between maneuverability and bullet speed. It’s kind of hard to get both with this build so I’m trying to find the sweet spot. I’m leaning towards cutting to 22” [/QUOTE]
