    Also, before you buy, figure out what weight bullets you are planning to shoot, that way you can pick the proper twist. I have a 1:10” twist on my shilen barreled .308, but other people prefer different twists. Definitely figure that out before you order.

    I believe I will stick with my 1:10" but have considered going to a 1:11.25" because I can. This rifles primary use is hitting steal out to 1200y during the winter months when my fields are harvested and I can setup my targets. Currently the 1:10" works well for shooting heavier subsonic loads suppressed and also reaching 168gr-175gr super Sonic's out to 1K. I like the versatility

    I was looking at Hart's website. Considering shipping my rifle to them to do everything in one place versus buying ba blank and having a local company finish it off. How would you say they compared to a Shilen or Krieger? They were my top contenders previously

    Hart rates right up there with the other two, in my opinion.
