No where does it give the rifling twist rate.
Only then will I decide if it is INDEED a Sweed.

If I didn't already have the CZ-550fs in 6.5 Swede it would be a powerful temptation.

I am having a gunsmith put a 6.5 x 55 douglas match barrel on my large ring mauser 98/22 receiver, a laminated thumb hole stock, glass bedding, butler saftey, timmney trigger, jeweled bolt, complete bluing (like the colt python) and a set of rings for my scope. I am tired of large muzzel blast and heavy recoil in my rifles. I want something that I would be proud of to take to the range rather than my normal collection of surplus or beat up rifles.

I know it cost a lot of money but I want one rifle that is a showpiece and shoots good. All I have to do now is get some cases for reloading and I am good to go.
