21 Campfire Regular Registered: 11/25/08 Posts: 313 Loc: georgia	I just picked up my second No. 1, a .243 1B made in 2001. I have'nt had a chance to shoot or even scope it yet, but was wondering if they shoot 100 or 80 grain bullets the best? Anyone have any idea what rate of twist the barrel might be? Thanks. 021 Edited by 21 (12/10/12 05:46 PM) _________________________ "Never force anything, just get a bigger hammer".

My lastest Sierra manual lists it as 1~10. But I've found that they are not ALWAYS right. Anomolies do exist, and often show up where one would least expect. Best to check it oneself to be sure... _________________________ "There are things that are known and things that are unknown... In between are the doors!"
