How would a 10" twist work for a 22-250 improved or a 220 swift?

What bullet you plan on using ?

Std twist is 12 for the 22-250/Swift...40-55s

9 twist will work better for the heavier 69-75s

7-8 twist for the VLD heavy 80s..

10 twist works well with the 68 and 69 grain match bullets... heavier than that you need a one in 9.... that twist will stabilize 75 to 80 grain match bullets..

Probably 55 to 60 gr bullets.
