[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1528998, member: 12995"] If they offer a 1:8 twist barrel, I would go that route, as it will allow more flexibility with bullet options in the future. The 1:9 will be fine up to most 175 grain bullets, but if you plan on possibly shooting anything heavier in the future, I would see if they can swap you out for a 1:8 twist. The Vortex high rings might be a bit tall, but that's more of a personal fitment thing. Some folks like really high rings, some like really low rings. I'm one of the latter. I typically run the Seekins Precision low (0.82") rings for anything up to 52mm optics when running on a 20MOA base. [/QUOTE]
