7.62 mm twist rate?

**303carbine** · 01-08-2008 04:51 PM

I have a k98 Israeli Mauser in 7.62, what is the twist rate so I can reload the proper weight bullets.
Is it 1 turn in 12 inches or 1 turn in ten inches?????

Thanks,
John

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

According to the data in an entry for a 7.62 mm Mauser that hasn't been prepared (published) yet for the Milsurp Knowledge Library icon

, how about 4 groove - right hand twist?

Hope this helps...
