I honestly think I'd be better off getting the 1-7. I plan on using the federal m855 ammo (62 grain, long bullet) for most of my plinking as this ammo is only about 180 for 500 rounds. A little bit of the ammo I use might be 55 grain hornady v-max and 55 grain remington umc fmj because I can get those from a connection both for very very cheap. And I do plan on using handloaded 69/77 grain smk's and handloaded 68/75 grain hornady otm. I'd guess about 65% will be m855, 20% will be handloaded, and 15% will be the 55 grain hornady/remington. When I get my own loading equipment, the handloaded percentage will go up a decent amount. Seems like the faster 1-7 twist would be better. Also the PSA upper I plan to order is 1-7 so it's easy enough haha.
