[QUOTE="Coyotemaster1, post: 1535896, member: 108366"] Welcome, Been shooting the Swift a long time (20+) and am really fond of the chambering.As long as you have brass and dies I'd recommend a set back or another tube with same clambering- perhaps considering a 9/12 twist for heavier slugs. There is plenty of powder capacity and case strength with Swift,don't think anything gained with 250 ackley.I do feel the 12 May be the ticket with 55-60 grainers- plenty fast and energy on dogs to 500+. I like 50s and they are great to 400 and a bit more but at 500 they are feeling some limitations.The 9 twist with heavies is great--- for a while.Life expectancy isn't long however. [/QUOTE]
