Have been a big fan of the 6mm for a long time. Have never shot cast in mine, but I want to. I have kind of wanted one of the old slow twist 722s for this (plus I like the 722 regardless of caliber) but they are getting rather hard to find and expensive when you do.
If a rifle is marked .244, does that mean it is likely to have the slower twist? I have missed in the past year or two on a couple of nice rifles so marked built on quality small ring actions on Gunbroker. I kind of figured these were barreled before Remington re-introduced the cartridge with the new twist, would that be a good assumption? I kind of figure asking most types on Gunbroker to actually measure the twist is unrealistic.
Thoughts?
