The rifle has a 1x10 twist and thanks for explaining how to measure it. I didn't know that is how you did it.
I just installed the new Leupold VXIII 2.5x8x36 scope on it and hope to get to the range in the next few days. So far, the bullets I have purchased are the 100 grain Rem Core-Lokts, Federal 100 grain Sierra Gameking BTSP and Winchester 95 grain Ballistic Silvertips. I will also try the Noslers when I find them. I am anxious to start shooting the ammo. Maybe Monday.......
