[QUOTE="Brad615, post: 2093405, member: 46747"] Hello All, Looking for some opinions, and or suggestions for my next project. I'm going to be sending in my 7mm Rem Mag to have a new barrel installed. Should I go with a 27' or 28' barrel, and I'm thinking either a 1-7 or 1-8 twist. I'm doing this for long range accuracy, but also to hunt with. It's a small sporter style barrel so I'm not worried about the weight difference. The bullets I reload love a tight twist so I'm thinking 1.7 twist. For the barrel length is there any noticeable gain in going with a 28' over the 27'? I have heard more accuracy & faster fps with the 28' & I've also heard that there was no noticeable difference? Thank You, Brad. [/QUOTE]
