I'm building either a 6.x47Lapua or 6 Dasher. And I'm getting ready to order my barrel.
I have located the following 2 barrels:
1: 6mm - 1:7.5 twist - 4 groove - .237 bore - 28in finish length
2: 6mm - 1:7.5 twist - 5R - .236 bore - 28in Finish length
Both are Kriegers. Ive always used 4 groove and have no experience with the 5R. But from the little research ive had time to do, people seem to really like the .236 bore. Is it worth getting the .236 bore with 5R rifling (which I may not like)...or should I stick with the 4 groove that I like and live with the .237 bore.
I'm lost here.

PS: Plan on shooting 105-115g VLDs from 0-1200yds. Steel plates, and PRS matches mostly
