[QUOTE="Trnelson, post: 1230789, member: 42308"] My next barrel for my 6.5/06 is going to be a 26" gain twist. 1-12 to 1-7 I want to shoot the 150g and 160g bullets. Same thing is going on my 264 win mag. My thought is it will help reduce some of the copper fouling I'm getting in the first 12" of my current barrels. The 143 ELDX is shooting pretty well out of my 264 but I'm having to de-copper it every 45 to 55 rounds at 3,168 fps. I *think* I'm getting some skeiving of the jacket however I haven't recovered any bullets that I could learn anything from to substantiate that they've all been too damaged and in pieces. Maybe I need to shoot a bit further than 50 yards... Just my $.02 [/QUOTE]
