    win mod70 308 win heavy varmint--barrel twist??

    Common twist rates for the 308 Win is 1 in 12, unless you buy the super match 14 from Springfield armory which has a 1 in 10, all others from them are listed as 1 in 11. Remington in its varmint class lists all 308s with 1 in 12. So it in all probabilities it is a 12 twist. DR

    MOA is best I can get out of my Mod 70

    Worker, MOA out of a factory Model 70 actually isnt bad, most people who buy a 700,a 70, or any other off the shelf gun are actually just buying a hunting rifle. Its a niche thing. If the manufacturers give the average joe blow a 1 inch they is happy!!! Heck, half a minute of elk,, minute of...

    If primer isn't falling out or

    Gerry, I agree that there had to be some sort of barrel obstruction, Other than the article I have no Idea what went wrong, not saying it was hornady, not saying it was the woman. My point to worker and the post was that the weakest link in the chain is human error, or just plain arrogance that...

    Murphy Been watching your progress on this project, although I have never encountered a 1 in 14 twist on a 25.06 have been shooting the caliber for a number of years.

    Max loads are they hurting my firearm

    Quote: In my humble opinion, heavy bolt lift (excessive bolt thrust), shinny case heads, loose primer pockets, and any other signs of high pressure are unsafe and should be avoided at all cost. Others opinions may vary. Old Cob I have to agree with ya on this one Bob and give you a 2 thumbs...

    Bushmaster Problem

    Sorry to hear your problem but When you got the upper back and it didnt shoot, I understand why you would want to change the barrel, BUT when you couldnt get the nut off as it normally would, you should have sent it back. Now as one other poster has stated you could try and sue for the...
