RAW Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 Hi, What 6.5 bullets do you recommend for your Accuracy Internationals, I think possibly Paddy Dane makes the rifle barrels for Sporting services, It is a heavy profile, no idea of twist. I have just ran the barrel in. By posting I am hoping to take the guess work out. Look forward to hearing replys. Richie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ai308 Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 I'm running the 139gr Lapua Scenar out of a 26" 1/8" twist .260 Lothar Walther barrel in my AIAX308 . My buddy is using the same one with his AT, which got a custom .260 barrel from the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got mine also from him. Could choose between Lothar Walther and Sassen Engineering. Or find out the twist by yourself: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danpd Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 I haven’t chambered any barrels for Sporting Services for over 12 months but continue to do any required threading or one off specials on Bartlein blanks. All their 6.5 barrels are Walther now and will be 1/8 twist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saferider Posted December 23, 2018 Report Share Posted December 23, 2018 A friend I shoot with uses the 139 Lapua scenar heads and has some damn good results out to 1000 metres can’t comment any further than that, he uses the same load from 300 metres all the way out to the 1000 mark with no perceived difference on the accuracy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 139g Scenar with 44.5g N560 works to 1000 and beyond...... usual load dev caveats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
