500 yds is nothing for that or the standard .243 round, heck I do that with my .223...course thats just on p-dogs.
A pal is having a benchmark bbl made for his Ruger action. He wants a harder hitting round than his .220 swift and he shoots that to 600+ all the time.
I just dont think a 1/12 twist is going to be what he thinks it will be after its done & said.
Im going to have a .243AI bbl made for my Savage action when I get the current build done myself.
