Twist rate of t3 hunter/ammo

calaper · 03-25-2008, 04:05 AM

Can anyone tell me what sort of twist rate the hunter has in .308win? Also what length of barrel do they come with?

Also what ammo would someone suggest for sighting this rifle in? It would be in .308 again.

Thanks

Tikka T3 hunter is 1 in 11 inch twist in a 22 7/16" barrel. I would start with ammo in the 150-160gr range.
