I wish manufacturers still offered 223 and 22-250 in a 1:12 twist. It makes no sense when almost all the hunting ammo for 223 and 22-250 comes in 50 to 55 grain projectiles and almost all the gun manufacturers make make 22-250 in a 1:14 or 223 in 1:9. Fortunately I do own an older CZ in 223 with 1:12 twist, it shoots 40 to 55 grain under 3/4” consistently, in some ammo 1/2” groups. I have had people type back, “ I have a 1:7 twist that gets moa” or “it’s funny how some people don’t know how to shoot”. I just disregard those. I have experienced in 223 in 1:9, 1:8 and 1:7. In 22-250 I have tried several 1:14 none of them have produced moa or better at 100 yards. I have tried multiple ammo manufacturers in both 223 and 22-250. I just wish they would bring back the 1:12 twist in a hunting rifle for 223 and 22-250. Why do people think you have to fix something that is not broken.

I had a 22-250 ackley that loved to vaporize some heavy bullets !
What twist did you decide on for the 208’s in your 308?
1-8 twist. It was custom made by Krieger. Super fun to shoot at distance. Was slow, less than 2500fps but the BC more than made up for it.
