[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1872366, member: 93895"] I I have a 7mm-08 xbolt. I had a long range hunter braked 300wm & a braked 26" 270wsm that was the predecessor to the hells canyon. Twist was slower than advertised on the two I sold. I have mixed feelings about the xbolts. My honest opinion is that it's possible to get a good shooter & possible to get a mediocre shooter but that's a possibility with a lot of rifles. I would go no smaller than a muzzle thread size of 5/8-24 on a 7mm. I have heard some very limited reports of muzzle swelling. I know there are several xbolt loyals here and probably because they got a great shooter. I guess the twist issues I had is what leaves me with with some skepticism. Nevertheless you may indeed be happy with an xbolt. The recoil of my 300 wm wasn't that bad so I assume the 28n probably won't be either. [/QUOTE]
