[QUOTE="Tex_Hunter, post: 2833017, member: 31749"] Hoping I don’t get too much heat for bring back a thread that’s a few months old, but curious what twist people are running who’s rifles seem to favor the 145s over the 139s? I recently relocated to Californistan for work. I left most of my guns in safe at my parents’ place back in TX, but I did bring most of my bolt actions including my 280Rem. I’ve never played with lead free ammo but have an opportunity to hunt bear this fall and deciding between these two bullets (or maybe the 150gr CX). Barrel is a 1:8.7 twist Bartlein. Barnes lists H4831SC as the “best” powder for the 145gr, which is an added plus since I’ve got buckets of it on hand. [/QUOTE]
