Anyone happen to know for sure the twist rate on a 93 mouser in 7x57 caliber ?
Thanks

I just came up with a 1 in 9 twist .
Do you have one that you measured? also thanks for your reply I had heard 1in 8.6 or close to that so 1 in 9 sounds good if you do shoot a 7x57 what have you found to be your best bullet weight?

Mouser = a cat that is adept at catching mice.
Mauser = a German firearms manufacturer.
@ P & P
I have several of each.
I checked the twist rate , on a barrel I recently took off of a small ring mauser .
It seemed most of the replacement barrels came in a standard 1 in 8.5 , so that sounds right .
I am trying to get a light cast Boolit to shoot 2 inches or less at a 100 yards , and it's still a work in progress , but honestly I am making it harder on my self with my choice of components .

the best bullet in my 93 mauser is a 175gr RN....I have shot lighter 145gr but they were not as accurate
Death to every foe and traitor and hurrah, my boys, for freedom !
I put a Green Mountain barrel on mine and it made a huge difference. The old barrel was about like the proverbial sewer pipe. I don't know what the twist is, but it will now do moa. Haven't tried cast in it, though.
