I have been using my Savage 12 LRPV in cal. 6BR with a 1:12 twist on prarie dogs out to 400 yards quite succesfully with 75gr Vmax bullets. HOWEVER i would like to start shooting LONGER bullets say the 87gr Vmax to the 105 gr Amax. Should i simply get the savage 1:8 twist barrel for my rifle ? Will i still be able to reuse the orig barrel when needed. I am open to suggestions on other barrel options and someone to do the initial set up.
Thanks
