Uberti 1885 High Wall Twist Rate

[brad925]

I bought a Uberti 1885 High Wall last week in 45-70. Was wondering if anyone knows what the twist rate is in this rifle. I could us a cleaning rod and tight patch to find out but I am a long way from where the gun is.

twist is 1 in 18"

Thanks Hiwall.

I beg to differ sir. I have that rifle, and the twist is 1 in 20". If you go to the Cimarron web site, and look up the specifications, you will see it in print.

I guess you're back to the tight patch and cleaning rod, Bub.
