Which Twist Rate for 18” Barrel and Barnes Bullets in 6.5 Creedmoor?

[BACB]

Wondering which twist rate I should go for shooting Barnes 120grain TTSX and 127grain LRX bullets through an 18” carbon fiber barrel in 6.5 Creedmoor???

You’ll be fine with the standard 1:8 twist that’s offered in the majority of the 6.5cm barrels and rifles. If you want to get fancy then do a 8.75 to 8 gain twist from bartlein barrels

You can alway check twist here:

Thanks. I’m going with a Carbon Six barrel. Or Proof if they will do an 18”.
