    Twist rate for .257 115 to 130 monos; 257 AI

    i went with a 7t for the 26" creed. built for 128-135's. velocities probably won't get over 3,100? lots of bearing surface compared to the 26cals of same weights within the same brand and type (match, hunting, etc). 7.5 wasn't an option or i'd gone that direction

    now having a 22 and 25 on the way and already having several 6.5's should i just get the 6.............i do own a 243win ar, but probably not getting the 6. so far the only 25cal bullets i'll have is the sierra 131's and berger 133's. i might shoot as low in weight as the 128edl-x and may...
