The 1/9 barrel is made for the military M855 62 grain round. It is the exact correct twist for that round.
For handloads I would look at 69 grain Sierra Match Kings.

Well the 1/7 shoots 62 gr fine right?

Sure, it shoots most everything just fine 55 grains and up.

I was just wondering what round it was designed for. Thanks for the info, that link was awesome. Learned alot about my own military ammo. I was in Iraq oredering ammo for my BN and had no idea what the changes really were.
