I've got a Remington 700 .243, it looks exactly like the ADL they have listed on their website, but it was made in 2011. It doesn't have the twist rate marked anywhere on the barrel so I'm assuming it's a 9 twist based on what others have said, so correct me if I'm wrong. I was wondering what a really accurate load would be for this setup. I shot 100 grain Federal Power Shok rounds earlier today and was grouping at about 1 inch at 100 yards, but I know I can tighten that up with hand loads. I've only got about 300 yards of property to shoot on so that's about as far of a shot as I'll be taking.
