[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1272291, member: 27307"] Just a thought...:) The original rifle is a Rem. 700 in .22-250 which originally came with 1:14" twist rate. I don't see any statement of intent to use this as a target rifle so the suggested fast twist might not be necessary if this were to be used as a hunting rifle where Spitzer boattails or Nosler Partitions are used in those weights. The 6mm Creedmoor produces enough velocity to stabilize 100-grain hunting style bullets in 1:10" or if necessary a 1:9" twist rate. Now if the OP decides to use the Berger VLD Hunting bullets then the faster twists will apply. Regards. [/QUOTE]
