Why would a factory 7 twist have any more freebore than a 12 twist?

Id say because somebody entered in some bad information to a computer on the cnc.
Mainly because a 1-7 twist rate barrel is designed to shoot heavier / longer bullets than a 1-12 twist rate barrel. Not saying that Savage uses a different chamber reamer for different twist rates, but most custom barrel makers do.Originally Posted by celltech
My new Rock Creek 1-7 twist 5R barrel is being chambered with .100" freebore so I can seat my bullet's out to a maximum COAL of 2.550"
I wasn't aware that Savage made a 12 twist in 223, only 9 and 7. Is Savage actually chambering barrels still? Or do they subcontract that work out?
Seems to me somebody, somewhere got their barrel blanks mixed up and chambered a slow twist 223 that ended up on a LRPV. Total FUBAR!
Banning a gun will not solve what is a mental health crisis inflamed by incendiary rhetoric on social and television media. The first amendment in this case is less precious and more likely the causal factor than the second amendment.
This I can't answer but the throat/leade should be longer...as you and i see it.
The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
Don't worry I will be asking for my shipping back. Just my luck, Savage is closed from July 3rd to July 13th. Is this normal?
