Stevens 200 in .223
« on: May 25, 2006, 04:29:12 AM »
Does any one know what the rate of twist is o these barrels?  Also what bullet weights have you found to be most accurate.  I currently am shooting some 62 grain stuff and it liked it real well, but would like to look at the 45-55 grain range.  Thanks!

I think all savage 223s are 1/9.
