The 2019 Remington catalog pdf page 112 of 116 is showing a limited edition of the above gun in 1:8 twist.

For brass life and the 150+ FPS MV increase, I highly recommend it. Especially with that Blackjack 131 ACE that you can now take advantage of thanks to the 8" twist.Hmmmm, I've been wanting to buy a 25-06 for my youngest boy, maybe have that chamber AI'd?
Why don't all the gun makers offer a choice of twist on many of their guns? I mean really how hard would it be. Barrels can be made at the same cost in any twist. Screw it on and mark the barrel like Browning does. It's a no branier to me.
It doesnt make sense to me that Remington would do this. I highly doubt they're going to do an 8 twist for the one high bc 25cal bullet on the market unless they know something that we dont. It would make more sense to step up the 7mm twist as there's a boat load of high bc 7mms out there that their rifles cant handle. I'm going with the possibility of a typo. If it is true then that's great that they are thinking ahead, but I wouldnt count on it. Then again, since when does Remington do anything that makes sense
