If I am interested in building a long range bolt rifle with a 6.5 mm barrel, and it is most likely to be 6.5-08 or 6.5-55 (because of the number of cases I have), what twist rate is appropriate for the heavier Sierra match bullets?

I went with an 8 twist shilen because my smith had one, but put in an order for a 8.5 twist bartlein. Should be perfect for anything between 120-140 grains.
