Barrel update. I had Eric at ES Tactical make a barrel in .308 22.5 with a left hand twist. I highly recommend it. I have found that if you are a right hand shooter that it will twist the rifle into you and sims to make follow up shots quicker. Now this works for me and may may not work for you. But keep an open mind and try it. I will very highly recommend ES for your next barrel. Accuracy is sub half and I have even gotten a sub .250 with factory and hand loads. The chamber was cut for A-Max.
