I am having a barrel made and would like suggestions as to best rifling twist. I expect to use bullets between 165 to 190 grains.

Thanks,
Ed

10 per inch has been serving the '06 well for about a century now.

Well, I'm still going to wait until I'm sure it going to catch on, thanks.

In truth a 12 will work just fine. It's likely you wouldn't be able to see any difference between the two at the range though. Regards, Bill.
