Gary, forgot to even ask, what kind of twist she will have in her…??. Usually, spend six months building up inventory, and set my ass down for a long winters evening at the bench….. Intend to try an assortment of 22 caliber fodder for her.. 7 or 8 would be very cool…. (Advice from the pro,s welcome) ..
Noticed your manual stops at 64 grains.
Just snapped a few boxes of that Nosler RDF 85 gr… pricey…wow.. Hope it shoots well.. Either way, it’ll get used up.. Other pipes out there will digest it..
All you snow worshiping guys can have this new found 4” of partly cloudy on my Jeep…. Enough…..ughhhhh…. …. Snake out.

it would be according to what you want if you want a

specific weight bullet twist. Normally we use either a 10 or 12. the 10 would be if you plan to shoot bullets from 62 to 69 grains. If you are going to use heavier than 69 then normally an 8 or 9" would be my suggestion. But one twist isn't going to shoot all weights well at all. I shoot 55 to 62 grain bullets in mine and I use a 12 twist.

221 Falcon twist.
