Davy Holt Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 It's normaly a 1.14 twist on the Triple but you do get the odd one with a 1.12 twist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mad1 Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 (edited) If you have a cleaning rod you put a mark on the rod and measure how far the rod travels down barrel till the mark you put on makes 1 full revolution ? 12 inches is 1/12 or 9 inch is 1/9 etc Edited December 31, 2012 by mad1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kent Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Mine is a 1 in 12 Pre 2002 had a 1:12 twist rate and post-2002 rifles have the 1:9 twist rate .222 not .223! Are you sure of that ? it seems totally insane the triple has always been intended for 50grn and 1-9 is to fast a twist really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I think the 1-9 comes from wikilies! Cz American is 1-14 in triple deuce and 1-12 .223 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davie_M Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Best way to find out is to put a cleaning rod down the barrel and count the turns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
