requesting a twist rate for .223
« on: October 01, 2010, 04:43:16 PM »
Saw in the FAQ that the Marlin barrels are a mix of 1:9 & 1:12. I want to get the 1:9 since I have a lot of 62 grain for use in my AR.

Has anyone tried to request the 1:9 twist? I'm going to send off mine for bull barrel and the 1:12 twist would be a definite handicap.(pardon the pun)  :P

They haven't made a 1:12" barrel since 2007, so your only choice is 1:9", but don't plan on getting one until next year, they have very few acc barrels in stock now, give em a call first.  ;)

They don't have any .223 barrels of any type in stock.
They also didn't have the 20 gauge barrel I wanted either.
