Encore 22-250 caliber twist
« on: July 02, 2005, 05:23:13 PM »
Hi All,
I've been playing with my 22-250 rifle and I'm trying to find the right weight bullet for it. I did the old cleaning jag trick to find out the twist of the rifling and came up with one turn in 12.5 inches? So it's probablly either 12" or 13" or maybe it is 12.5 what do you guys think? Anyone know?
Now my information says that a 12" twist can stablize up to 63 grn. bullet but how light can I go?
Thank for any help,
Bim
