I am getting ready to rebuild one of my .308s and I ended up buying 2 barrels because I couldn't decide which one to go with.
A) Bartlein, Heavy Varmit Profile with 1:9" Twist
B) Proof Research, M24 Profile with 1:10" Twist
This rig will spend most of its time 400-800 yds but will stretch it's legs a couple times a year to 1000+ yds. I generally run 175-200 gr bullets in it, but this particular rifle kind of gets used as a test platform and ends up running a variety of bullets through it from 160-220+ gr. It is probably going to get cut down to 24", but I haven't decided on that either. Ultimately, I am just trying to find my best chance of being decently accurate across a variety of loads.
Which barrel would you have the smith spin on?
