It's got 1x10" twist.

What do y'all think of the Tikka T3x in .22-250 with the 1x8" twist? Will it reach as far as a .243?

More about the backstop beyond the ~750 yds of open fields: there's at least 1/2 to 5/8 mile of thick hardwood forest. And we own all of it, so no worries about folks being in those woods.
