I have a Shilen Select Match barrel that was previously mounted on an early Savage 110 short action. I tried most of the available match bullets and selected the Lapua 155 gr. Scenar as the best combination of accuracy and velocity. I have moved the barrel to a Win. Model 70 action, and due to the smaller diameter action threads, the barrel is the same length. My problem is the previous 155 gr. load no longer performs as well, which I can understand, since I have changed so many variables. My question is, do I have to retest other bullets again, or does the barrel preference for a particular bullet remain? I know many of you move barrels from action to action, and I was hoping you could answer my question.
