Best rifling for 6XC and DTAC 115 RBT

[zipollini]

What is the best rifling for shooting a 6XC with the new DTAC 115 RBT bullets ? Range from 100 to 1000 yds ?

5R ? 4 groove ? Something else ?

I'm looking at this -

Your comments will be appreciated.

I don't shoot 6xc, but 5R serves me well in my 6BR

I have had my best luck with the 4 groove Krieger barrels.

+1 on that.. I would also add .236 bore to the equation, but I'm sure there's plenty of opinions on that! They just seem to shoot better than .237's for me

Schneider 5P, 7.5 twist. Shoots almost as good as my 6PPC. using H4831SC

I've run the 4 groove kreiger .236 bore and the .237 bore. and the .237 bore seems a little faster and easier on the big primer pockets to me. I run the 7.5 twist in the xc with the DTACS works very well. Got the new lapua brassed 6mm creed up and running see where it stack up to XC. So far the brass taking a licken and showing good promise.

I always use Barts 5R 8 twist, they seem to be coming around, just gotta get rid of a little vertical. From my 6 Creed. http://i.imgur.com/9A5xrbq.jpg?
