[QUOTE="TOM H, post: 378131, member: 306"] Acouple years ago had 30-06's build one use a Bartlein 1/11twist 5r barrel next one a 1/11 twist Lilja next one used a Shlein 1/13 twist Ratchet barrel and that rifle I didn't plan on shooting anything heavier than 168gr bullets. Accuracy from The Shilen barrel was equal to the other rifles same gunsmith was used. Lets just say all three barrels gave better than published velocity using published reloading data. Last year I used the Shilen barrel 30-06 on a late cow elk hunt with 150gr Nolser E-Tip. Bluedot, I've been shooting the 223AI over 10yrs now and my 27.5" long 1/14 twist Hart barrel with 31gr/H-335 alittle over 3900fps and that's max in that rifle. I normally shoot 50/52gr been using surplus 8208 high 3600 to 3700fps range in both 223AI. [/QUOTE]
