[QUOTE="mongo4567, post: 2218695, member: 113361"] I use mine mainly for hunting. I prefer the creedmoor because we have smaller game here in Texas and I use 120-130g loads. The vast majority of 308 ar10s have a 1:10 twist. With a 10 twist I've had a lot of issues getting exceptional accuracy out of common nato loads or lighter off the shelf hunting or practice ammo (147-150g). I have two rifles that will stack most any 168g loads in one hole, but have trouble getting near 1moa with 150s. This is just my personal experience with lots of powders, bullets, and different factory loadings on two heavy barrel rifles. I even bought a slower twist barrel for an ar10 308 so I can plink with cheaper surplus when I get it swapped. [/QUOTE]
