I have a few questions regarding my rifle build.
I will be shooting a .308 and bullets of the 165-168 class.
1) Should I use an extended box magazine?
2) What are the advantages of using a twist specifically for 165 grain bullets vs a faster twist that will stabilize heavier bullets? For example - will shooting 165 grain bullets with a 13" twist rate yield faster velocities than 165 grain bullets with a 10" twist rate?
3) How long should the barrel be ideally?
