Optimum barrel length & twist rate for .510 Whisper?
Hi everyone! I�m new to this forum. I�ve been searching for information for a .510 Whisper project but there doesn�t seem to be a whole lot out there. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what would be the optimum barrel length & twist rate for subsonic shooting.

1/8 twist is optimal and 16-18 inches is adequate for stabilization

I make brass from 338 lapua if you need some

good luck with your project

Thanks man. I will be needing brass. I'll send you an E-mail when I get to that point.

Can anyone give me the names of a few people that make barreled actions for these (besides SSK Industries) and about how much they cost? I would like to shop around.
