[QUOTE="300 Driver, post: 1420399, member: 91257"] im in the market for a new rifle and just ran across this. Browning has multiple x-bolt models this year with 1:8” twist in 300 WM and 1:8 28 Nosler. Seems like this is a good thing, but here’s my question. I’m intrigued by the Pro long range, Hells Canyon McMillan Ambush LR, and the grey laminate LR. All had the 1:8 twist. The Hells Canyon McMillan LR has a 1:9.5 twist. 1:8 twist in a 300 WM? Isn’t that too much for the 208/212/215 bullets? Can a 300 WM send the 225/230 bullets fast enough to outrun the 215? Anyone shooting a fast twist 300 WM with hands on experience? [/QUOTE]
