I am thinking about ordering a 6.5x55mm Savage drop in barrel.
I need to know what twist to select.
Which would you choose & why?
The vendor choices are:
6.5 cal 1-8" 6 Groove 130 Grain or heavier
6.5 cal 1-8.5" 6 Groove 130 Grain or heavier
6.5 cal 1-9" 6 Groove Up to 130 grain bullets
6.5 cal 1-10" 6 Groove Up to 125 grain bullets
I am leaning towards 1:8, not sure.
I want a twist that allows for the most range of bullets & accuracy.
Will be used to hunt coyote to deer.
TIA
