[QUOTE="112Savage, post: 1739515, member: 38801"] I currently have a savage 112 FVLSS with the factory fluted 0.82" 26" varmint barrel. If I were to switch barrels and keep the same cartridge I would probably drop to a 0.75" straight taper 26" barrel. My savage is insanely accurate with the 115 berger and retumbo at 3200fps, but I do find it a bit heavy in the woods. As far as twist goes, that all depends on usage and bullet choice. I think for long range hunting, larger diameter and heavier bullets would be better. Long story short, I have creedmoors, 264WM, 6.5-284 etc but just love my 25-06 for shooting targets. [/QUOTE]
