[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1613757, member: 48043"] My lh 7mmstw (shilen) and lh 7rum (brux) are both wearing 8" twist barrels... I can get plenty of speed and accuracy on a 8, so why would I slow down to a 9 or 10" twist. My 7stw is shooting 140AB's with rl25 and netting 3340 fps and running 1/2 moa if I do my part. I'm working with 168-180 grain pills with my (new) 7rum and she seems to like the 180 sierra with retumbo. As to 120's, I don't see why an 8" twist would be an issue in a smaller chambering like the 7rem; I have run them to 4,000 fps in a 7rum on a 9" twist without bullet failure. [/QUOTE]
