[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1759939, member: 87243"] Get a 7.5 twist, and you can run the 156 in a 6.5, I use the 156 EOL in my .260 AI, and I have lots of load data for the .260 AI if you want to p.m. me....I run it at 2940 fps with a 29" barrel nearly 2 grains under max, which was just at or under 3000 fps, I talked with another guy with the same load that runs the 156 at 2740 fps in a 20" barrel, so a 24" would get you around 2850 fps or so with the 156, and that is plenty of energy to take anything y'all would hunt. A 6.5ss would push the same bullet around 3100 or better, either would do great, no bad options there. [/QUOTE]
