I'm personally ok with it. I like the idea of light bullets going fast when varmint hunting.

I can only speak for myself but if I wanted to shoot 70g+ bullets I'd just bump up to a 6mm of some flavor. But I can see where a shooter in todays world might find the 1:14 twist to be .....limiting.

I agree. I’ve killed a truckload of coyotes with that twist rate in my 22-250 and 50 grain ballistic tips. It’s extremely accurate and deadly.
I shoot 70 grain ballistic tips in my 240 weatherby. It’s also quite effective but not a “pelt” gun, but they’re close to worthless anyway.
