I can confirm. Mine will feed 3.6" no problem.I searched and found a thread that says 3.6" on X-Bolt Hells Canyon. That was someone that had one in a 300 Win Mag. Might just be enough.
I'll measure the twist when I get back home in a couple days to validate the stamp on the barrel is correct, thanks guys.
Which is why "listening to their customers" would make no difference.If you want to get technical, majority of EVERY major gun manufacturer's customers don't obsess over twist rates
Most don't notice the difference now and it costs nothing to leave them as they are rather than change for a small minority following the latest trends.Snyper, If thats the case make them 8s and the 9 guys won't notice the difference.
You do realize that unlike the cartridges they are chambered for, heavy-for-caliber bullets is not a "trend" and is used amongst a wide variety of different cartridges. So, whether a certain trendy cartridge become obsolete or not, another will always be there to take its place, using the same heavy-for-caliber bullets.Which is why "listening to their customers" would make no difference.

Yes, they really are.heavy-for-caliber bullets is not a "trend"
That doesn't make it a "trend". Trends come and go rather quickly. The fact that every major bullet manufacturer has started building heavy-for-caliber high-BC bullets, is a sign that the "game" (hunting and shooting) is changing.Yes, they really are.
The vast majority still hunt at less than 200 yards and have no need for the latest, greatest high BC heavyweight bullets.
