    8 vs 8.5 twist for 6.5 mm

    My 260ai in 8.5 that greg built me shoots lights out with 130vlds. Shoots great out to 1000 so far if I do my part.

    Thoughts on 22-250AI Fast Twist?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but wherei will have issues is in the throat?? Is that correct? 3200ish is fast but not as fast as what the rest of my 22-250s shoot. So I'm guessing it has the DL with higher pressure of the heavier bullets coming out that fast? Forgive my ignorance here...

    Thoughts on 22-250AI Fast Twist?

    There is no need at all. I have a 260ai now that I shoot out to 1000. And others for varmint... Its more just because...something I have wanted for while. I just want to weigh out the options before thinking any further. Barrel life is my main concern....which with speed comes death of...

    Thoughts on 22-250AI Fast Twist?

    I have no reason for wanting a 22-250ai opposed to others. I just was thinking of some form of heavy 22 bullet with some speed. And I have other 22-250s. I'm just thinking barrel life will be awful.

    Thoughts on 22-250AI Fast Twist?

    Been kicking idea of building a 22-250AI in a 7" or 8" twist for quite some time. I have no real need for it other than I want it. I would like to shoot 75-90 gr VLD's or Sierras in the 3200 FPS area. AI...? Because, brass life rocks and I want it. I have a 700 action I could use, or a...
