Something also worth considering is Hornady recommend 1-8 twist for their 162 Amax, which seems to be a fairly fast twist rate considering the Berger 168 is 1-10 & 180 is 1-9 ?

What exactly are your expectations of accuracy?

Can you yourself shoot well with other rifles that have be proven to shoot by others as well?

I reckon it will be the fluting on the barrel. Its not factory is it? This is the rifle that was on trade me a few months back?

Yup that's the one Nathan, I can't remember from memory who done the fluting for the previous owner. It had a piece of shit muzzle brake with it that was badly designed and made recoil worse if anything!
Wildman, iv had a 223 and 6.5 and their accuracy was awesome so I think I know what to expect with accuracy and my own ability

I'd never get a good factory barrel fluted. If it's not done correctly it can mess with the harmonics and cause havoc with accuracy. I would have hit the buy now on that rifle if it was standard. I've since brought a brand new 85 same calibre wood stainless.

It had crossed my mind that the barrel fluting may have caused some accuracy fault, It certainly looks awesome hah.
Hopefully not, see what happens with further testing
