Been thinking seriously about having an Ackley Improved 6.5-06 built with a 24" bbl. My bullet of choice is the 140gr Sierra w/Winchester brass.. Any suggestions about twist (I was thinking 1-in-8), powder type, etc???

1&9 is all you will need but the 1&8 would also work well and may even work better with some of the Berger 140 gr's
