hey all,       Sorry to ask this but the search option is down .    Does anyone know the twist rate of a 24" 223 encore barrel ?   Also is anyone shooting 60gr V-maxs through one ?         thanks to all

If you look at the midway site:

it says the encore 223 barrel twist is 1 in 12". Of course, if you take a cleaning rod, put a big enough patch on the end to make the fit tight, soak the patch in bore cleaner, and then run it down the boar while letting it twist, you can measure how long it takes for the cleaning rod to make one twist! Then you will know what you got.
