Hello Everyone,

We bought a Savage Axis 22-250 with Boyd's adjustable stock from local Walmart and gun looks great but on heavy side so started trying to find twist rate to help decide on good bullet to start reloading for and can not find anywhere on gun, owners manual, receipts, on box and when asked around have been told alot of diffetent twists. I emailed Savage few days ago and so did friend helping and no reply.
Had friend use cleaning rod and he came up with 1:8 or 1:9 twist and found some Nosler Accurate 80gr bullets and either one of those twists should work.
So today reloaded Nosler Accurate 80gr bullets and shot and bullet keyholing thru paper.
How can get the right twist for this rifle?
Thanks for any help.
