[QUOTE="Eaglet, post: 159357, member: 3756"] Zeroed_in, Use a cleaning rod that will spin off the handle as you push it through the barrel with a patch. Place it where the patch is already started into the rifling’s, place a dot right on top of the rod by the handle, place a mark using a marker on the rod right next to the rod-guide. Start pushing the rod in slow and making sure it's spinning. When the dot comes back to be right on top the rod again, make another mark on the rod right next to the rod-guide. This means the rod has made one full turn. Measure the distance between the two marks and if you get 10 inches or real close to it then it would be 1:10 rifling. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
