for 1/8 twist in 20 inch I would use this for my long long range work. (more than 300yds) Starting with 77 gr BTHP.
the 1/9 16" I would use for intermediate and closer (300 yds and closer) the 68 gr HPBT or the 55 or 60's would be good to start.
I don't shoot long range (pretty much anything past 300 yds) Don't really have any place that I could shoot that far. I have had good accuracy with Hornady 55 gr spsx's for prarie dogs out to about 200 to 250 yds.
But that is what I would try if I was gonna.
Whatever you are willing to put up with, is exactly what you will have.
When your ship comes in. ... make sure you are willing to unload it.
PAYPAL, sucks and I will never use them again. I recommend you do the same.
