zagumennyyilya 51 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Has anyone checked what the twist rate on their super is? According to some Russian websites and forums, the vepr 308 and super have a 320mm rate, about 1:12inch. Anybody have any other Info? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thebuns1 4,323 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 I just emailed Molot USA and asked them. I've been curious about this as well as other calibers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dracozny 11 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) I measured it myself in another thread it comes to about 12:1. pretty simple to do: take a cleaning rod and a patch. stick it in the breach/ or you could do it from muzzle end. stick a piece of electrical tape near the cleaning rod handle so it looks like a flag. mark the rod near breach or muzzle. push the rod in slowly until the tape makes 1 full revolution and mark the rod again near the breach/muzzle. measure the length of rod between the two marks. you should come to the same conclusion I did.
