Want to know the heaviest bullet for long distance shooting?Your 9 twist will easily handle the 69's and most will also shoot the 77MK's, 77 Nosler CC and Hornady 75's. You will get people that don't actually shoot heavies decrying the 9 twist.

A 7 or 8 twist barrel, screw the 9 twist.

Is it going to be a coyote gun or for the end of the world? Answer will dictate suggestions.

They shold spin up easy in the 9.Very surprising if you can't get a true 9 twist to shoot the 69's. Most will shoot the 77's as well.
Nice build Gasman! Now your hooked!!
