Re: TWIST HELP
Generally speaking, factory rifles come in a twist that suits mid weight range of projectiles for that cartridge. A quick Google search reveals that's the standard twist for a 25-06. So it should be OK...for something. Try including a bit more detail in your question, you'll get more useful answers..

Yeah sorry about that was in a hurry.
Yes would like to know if any one has a 1:10 twist in a 25-06???
And what projectiles you are running ?
Thanks MIck

Re: TWIST HELP
I have a Remington Sendero .25/06 1:10. Shoots 115gr NBT & NBST beautifully. Would have no trouble with a longer bullet. Used to have a BDL also 1:10 - 120gr bullets were fine in that.
