[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1840972, member: 2736"] I have re barreled a few different rifle calibers 1 in 7 twist rifle because they went to fast on the twist rate and did not perform as good as they should. (There could be many reasons for this) but with a 1 in 8 twist they all shot better according to their owners. I assume that they loaded the same way and used the same bullets that they wanted to in the first place. I would think that a 1 in 8 would be a good twist for what you want and with the cartridges you will use. you don't have to go with a fast twist to get accuracy, you do have to load good ammo though. This is just My opinion. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
