Does anybody know what twist rate they put on the Whitworth/Interarms commercial m98s chambered in the 7x57?
Much appreciated.

If no one knows, stick a cleaning rod with a brush down the barrel. Stick a piece if tape on the rod to make a flag. Pull out the rod until you get a full turn and measure the rod.

Pretty sure it was 1-9.
I once stocked a barreled action for a friend's wife, and that's what I recall.

The rifle I stocked for her was pretty junky. It only shot into 3/4 inch with 160 Partitions. Amazingly, she's used in both Montana and Africa and everything died!
