What barrel twist ? Probably 14"

I am 95% sure it is 1:9 from Kimber.

Back in the 90's we represented Kimber for a couple years. I had one of those in .223, sorry I ever got rid of it.

I have tried to research twist rate. I previously had a Kimber sporter repeater in 6x45 that was a 1:9 twist. From the limited data that I have found in the last day - I believe this version may have a 1:12 twist.

Easy to check, just put a cleaning rod down barrel and count the inches it travels for one revolution. YouTube can show easily.

I did check twist rate with a cleaning rod today. Most definitely a 1:12" twist. Goes along with varmint designation I suppose.

Decided to keep it.
