Romanian Twist?

Does anyone know the twist rate in Romanian Trainer?

Dug mine out of the back of the safe and measured the twist rate. It's 1 turn in 16 inches, or 1:16.

Are you thinking about buying one? I'm just curious what you would be doing where the twist would be of interest.

Romanian twist

I have some Aquila SSS ammo that needs faster twist.
And just a naturally curious person.
Gun "crank" since childhood, the details matter.
Pray for our country.

Ah. That makes sense.

I'm not aware of any guns that will shoot that ammunition very well without a barrel change.

You've got a couple of options:

Get a 10/22 and then find a 1:9 twist replacement barrel for it. There are a few places selling them.

If you have an AR in .223/5.56 with a barrel twist of 1:9 or faster, you can get a .22LR conversion kit for it.
