[QUOTE="Handymike, post: 2531117, member: 119469"] Currently I have an old Remington Model 721, .270w cal. that is a hunting rifle. I had a replacement trigger ( Timney ) installed last year to replace OEM trigger that was recalled. It has been a good hunting rifle with 1 " groups off the bench at 200 yards so I don't want to screw it up. That said, I would like your opinion on replacing the 1/10 twist barrel with a 1/8 twist so that I can shoot larger, heavier bullets. Couple questions 1. If I have a new barrel installed will I be able to keep accuracy with lighter rounds ( Coreloc 130/150) 2. Recommendations on barrel makers for this gun. Thanks Mike [/QUOTE]
