I went 'round and 'round with that notion.
I really got sucked in and put on a 6.5 twist for 90 grain bullets.
Theoretically, it should shoot like a 175 gr .308 but in practice it does not.
And the pit crew hates looking for the small holes.
At midrange, it is a different story, it is a FINE 600 yard rifle.
I now think your 8 twist and a fast 75-82 gr is the better approach at making a Long Range .223. So does Eric Stecker.
