    Rifling twists..

    Does anyone know of a website or where I can find a listing of the factory rifle/pistol twists. I use to have a sheet that listed almost every mfg. but have lost it in "THA MOVE". This site has been a great help and a vast store of knowledge. Only been reloading and casting since '54 but I still learn alot. Thanks guys.

    The old Speer Number Nine reloading manual has them for both rifles and pistols.

    Older reloading books had such information. For a website, try www.chuckhawks.com/index2d.rifles.htm

    There is a table in the back of "Cartridges of the World" they have the common twist rates for all the list cartridges. Might check you local Library if you don't have a copy.

    Hey KB, I'm in the same fix as you! Hopefully we'll get moved next week and I can get all my reloading and casting stuff up and running. Man, moving sure cuts into a guys casting, reloading, and shooting time!!
