[QUOTE="Whizbang1997, post: 1781203, member: 104774"] I recently bought a custom 98 large ring mauser with a 26" Hart Heavy Varmint barrel in a 220 Swift. The best I can measure, it shows a 1-14 twist. It came from an estate sale, and appears to have never been shot. And that's what the owner claimed. What's the heaviest varmint bullet that I can shoot that will stay stable? I'd like to use this Swift for an extra rifle for prairie dogging in SD, but hate the wind where we go. I just always wanted a Swift. Thinking 55-60gr pills? Data? Anyone? I already have a 22 Creedmoor with 26" Bartlein w/1-8 twist for the heavies. [/QUOTE]
