[QUOTE="PGJPJ, post: 1228951, member: 90674"] I went with a PacNor #3 contour (0.625). 24" long with 1:8 twist. I built it to be a hunting/carry rifle, and it feels very nicely weighted. Not too heavy to pack. Heavy enough for good field accuracy. I went with the 1:8 because I wanted to use the 168 grain Barns LRX. Also some of the 175 grain bullets may benefit from faster then 1:9. Just depends on what you want to shoot. Probably most go with the 1:9 Good luck! [/QUOTE]
