I’m going to be ordering a barrel, unknown make yet, but I’m looking for a 16.5 inch 6creedmoor to run everything from 75-108grain bullets. Guns use will be coyotes to deer, and will wear 2 scopes, one for day time and one for night.
Anyways, what twist rate will work the best?

A 9 will do 105 AMAX but won’t do 108’s. A 7 or 7.5 will probably be to fast for 75’s.

I have three 6 creeds with 7.5s. They shoot 85's to 109's great. Have not tried anything outside that range so not sure on the 75s.

My 6mmRem is a factory barrel with a 9.125 twist and shoots 75s & 105s
No doubt about the AR crap, just damn shame hunters don't have self control and knowledge
