[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 570060, member: 30902"] 20" is more than enough for the .260 so with 22" you'll just be that much better. Go for the 1:8 or 1.8.5 twist and you'll be a happy camper. I bounced a 3" rock with 10 consecutive shots with my 260 this evening starting at 600yds with factory (Grizzly) ammo loaded at 3000fps with the Swift Sirocco Bullet. Mine is a 1:8 Twist on what is essentially a DPMS LR-260 platform. No the 6.5x47 isn't inherently any more accurate. Both have been really tearing up long range competitions for the last three years.
