CALLING ALL .243 AI SHOOTERS. I'M CONSIDERING A CALIBER SWAP ON SENDERO PLATFORM

About to convert a 26" howa creedmoor into a 243improved 30°,specifically to shoot the 225gn oops,the 115gn Bergers.
Berger's site says I'll need 3100fps to properly stabilize them from the 7.5twist barrel.
Am I going to be able to get that speed OK ?
Thanks, Mal

Maybe, but your barrel might not like the powder required to get the velocity. If you havent ordered a barrel yet just grab a 7 twist
 
Gotcha, thought you were talking rebarrel.
Well if the 115s won't shoot theres plenty of options that will stabilize from 105-110
Bergers 109 looks Interesting and only needs a 1:8
I think those 109s are a target bullet ?
Hopefully I can get 3100 out of the 115s. People seem to get nearly 3000 pushing them with the creed.
