221FireballRifling twist 222 Rem
Hi all, I know someone here will know the answer.
What is the standard rifling twist rate in a new CZ 527 American in .222 Rem cal. ? I can find no mention on the CZ website.
Thanks.

MADISONHow to tell the twist of a rifle.
Put a snug fitting patch on the jag and insert the rod in bore. Make a mark
@ 12 o’clock on the rod at the muzzle. Pull rod out slowly until the mark is
@ 12 o’clock and measure the distance
from the mark to the muzzle. The resulting measurement is the twist of your
rifling, ie.
1 turn in ____”.
There could be some slippage between
patch and rifling, but this is close enough for government work.
