Humor me as I'm completely and totally out of my element here. Never owned one, never shot one, and just started my studying. Not in a hurry as my beans are too tall now to keep working on the chucks but they have absolutely set up shop and it seems like when I kill one, 3 come to his funeral.
I have 3 tack driving Senderos and was hoping to find a 4th in 22-250 but no dice. Looks like the bankruptcy ain't working out so well for Remington so I'm on the hunt for other options. Looking for a bull barrel or fluted, at least a 24" barrel, stainless or blued, and I've gotta get this twist rate figured out. 1 in 8, 9, 12, 14? The gun writers are all over the place on this. Some of my beanfields are over 600 yards long so I'm not plinking here…groundhogs, armadillos, coyotes.
All ears on recommendations, what to stay away from, etc.
