[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 198662, member: 412"] Are you saying they don't have a chambering reamer for 257Wby or can't do a 3-groove? If you've been happy w/Savage custom shop's work in the past, then by all means, let them chamber you a bbl. I don't worry a bit about the number of lands/grooves, just stating what I've got so someone would have accurate data to do anything from a direct copy to extrapolating their own ideas with an extra data point. If I were building the 257Wby today, I'd try to order a 1:8" twist bbl as forethought regarding where projectile R&D is going. 1:10 will work with everything up through 120's, but, I can think of no reason why I wouldn't order a 1:8 anticipating I'd need the extra twist sometime in the future.
