[QUOTE="Matt Moser, post: 1944069, member: 110736"] barrel twist is 1:8”, I have another in 1:7.5” and multiple other big 6.5’s all running 1-7.5 or 1:8” and I can honestly say there is not a big enough difference I can see, maybe if I build two rifles exactly the same and had both twist barrels I could give you an honest answer but I’d be confident in either or for the 139-156gr 6.5’s, I’d lean towards the faster for heavy for cal bullets engaging targets 1000+m but the 1:8 will run with it... pOtato-pAtato im sure others will disagree but in my old profession and now hitting steel or hunting the difference between 1/4“ or 1/2“ moa the subject on the receiving end gets FUBAR [/QUOTE]
