Twist

My hunting rifle is getting a new lease on life with the addition of a 280 AI chambered barrel. Can anyone recommend a twist rate?

1:9

Between me and my buddies we have easliy twisted up over 1 dozen 280 AI and 7-08 AI's with 1:9 tubes on 'em, and all shoot 120's, 140', 150's, and 160's equally as accurate (I've never tried 175gr but have no doubt they'd shoot too).

Great cartridge choice!

If you need any load data or empty cases, send me a PM....

Thanks! I ordered the barrel on Monday and ordered 1:9. Sounds like a return call isn't necessary. I'll send a PM when I get closer to load development.
