[QUOTE="britz, post: 340658, member: 7865"] hello and welcome to LRH.com. If you are buying the rifle, I'd stay away from the 770 because the barrels are pressed in, can not rebarrel them. If you already own it... no problem, some of the are reasonably good shooters. According to rem site, they have a 9.25" twist, berger says they need 9 for the 180 and 10 for the 168 so you better stick to the 168. Now, the berger bullets generally like to be seated right to the lands and that may not be possible w/ a factory rifle due to the freebore (rifle is usually held farther down the barrel in a factory rifle). the difference in the BC is not as big a deal as some may say... especially to a beginner at the game. Pick a bullet that will shoot good in your rifle and start practicing. [/QUOTE]
