Personally, I would go with a 1-9 twist if you are going to shoot primarily heavy bullets, 60 grain or above.

I have a 22-250AI with a Shilen barrel with the 1-9 twist and it will handle 80 grainers and down, although, I shoot either 60 grain vmax or 75 grain Amax 99% of the time.

Just my experience, may or may not be what you are looking for.

Good luck,

Pecos

The only powder I've used in mine is IMR-4895. Since it will put 10 hornady moly 50 gr v-max's in .5" at 100 yds I figured it wasn't worth all the trouble of trying different combos. All this is with a cheap scope. I have been using nosler manuels and found that their recomendations are pretty much dead on in my barrels.
