[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 2314767, member: 93895"] I had an xbolt 300wm, Tikka t3 270 wsm & just got through doing load development for a 25-06 t3x for a friend. Tikka 300wm was previously 11 twist if memory serves me correct. My xbolt was advertised as being 10 twist but measured 11 twist. 180 gr shot the best in the Browning. Shot around 1/2 to 5/8 moa. That was handloads & 180 Accubond nosler ammo. It was a 1.5 moa rifle with any other factory ammo out of trying 8 different kinds. I would say you probably have equal chances at either one being or not being a tack driver but I would probably go with the Tikka just because it will be an easier rebarrel if you need to. [/QUOTE]
