[QUOTE="Augustus, post: 985399, member: 10142"] I have two of the gain twist 375 barrels. One is a 9 to 6 and the other is a 13 to 6.5, both shoots the 400 and 425 very well. Other folks testing seems to indicate exit twists around 7.2 will suffice. Based on my experience and the testing of others, I think an exit twist of 7 would be optimum for the 425. If I ordered another gain twist barrel, I would probably try a 12 to 7. It will be a very long time before all question are answered about the .375. There has been millions of rds fired through a 308 and there are still discussions about what projectile and twist rate is best. One thing is for sure, your pocketbook is going to get several grains lighter over the next couple of years if you continue down this path. [/QUOTE]
