I have a Remington 7600 243 that has a 22" barrel, and a 1:9.125 twist, that I plan to use for hunting pigs, etc., in FL. I want to get a bolt gun in the same caliber, and have been looking at Tikka, among others. The Tikka has a 1:10 twist. I know the the faster twist will stabilize heavier bullets, which I want to use on pigs. How well does the 1:10 do with heavier bullets? Also, what would be an optimal barrel length for shooting varmints and deer/antelope at longer ranges?
Thanks
