Hawken twist rate?
« on: January 31, 2011, 08:40:24 AM »
Anyone know the twist rate of a CVA Hawken .54 cal rifle?   Some have told me 1:48, others 1:66 - hmmm.
Anyone know for sure?   Thanks in advance.

it will most likely be the 1:48 twist.  What are the last 2 digits on the serial number?

A buddy of mine has one that's a 1-66 and it is a good shooter...The best thing to do is take your ramrod with a cleaning jag and patch on it and measure yourself...That way you know for sure...
