   Looking at the factory (Winchester supersuppressed) ammo, 308 168gr and 300 BLK 200 gr are both rated at 1060 fps. Presumably, BLK typically have faster twist barrels and they've limited the bullet...

   May I suggest if buying new then if you buy a 16 inch model you will not need to send it to be shortened, the warrenty will remain intact and you will be shooting in no time. 1-8 will still work...

   Get the short one then, the faster twist is more versatile anyway.

    The 3006 standard twist is 1:10 and the 308 1:12 the 06 can handle 250 grain projectiles and they are still loaded for big game overseas. Yet both seem best with the 150 to 175 grain range. People...
