Does anyone know where or what sites to look at to find a rifle barrel? Specifically, I'm looking for a 1:10 -1:9 twist rate for a 22-250 so I can shoot heavier bullets. I have a howa 1500. My current twist is 1:14. I'd like to shoot 65-70 gr bullets for hunting applications. 1:14 is ok, but a little loose for my likings on 60-65 gr. bullets.

Thanks
