So if you want to shoot heavier grain bullets at distances over 100yds, stick with a 1/7 twist barrel (which is what I shoot).

Thanks, that makes sense. I'm not planning to go long with the carbine and will be looking at .308 for that purpose some time later (and that opens another set of questions but probably for a different board )
