Hello all. Im going to be rebarreling my stw savage. I had a chamber cast done and smith just confirmed my suspicion that throat is torched. My fault totally, shot a lot and upper end charges. Accuracy went away.
My question is , I'm thinking a 28" big sporter. .700 on the muzzle and 1:8 twist. I want to run bullets in the 162-180 gr range. Is that a stiff enough of a tube? Is 1:8 to fast or run 1:9, 1:8.5? Just curious what seems to be working with everyone else
