My Shilen barreled Rem 600 is 8 twist. It handles 80’s and lighter extremely well. Not sure how heavy one can go with a 9 twist.

id go on the shooters proshop website and buy a bunch of 55 grain e tip bullets. Then i'd grab a random charge of h380 like 35 grains and mess with the seating depth until I got it where I wanted.
