I have a 112flvss 7mm rem mag that was built in 2001. It has a fluted stainless 26" bull barrel, any idea what the twist was on this OEM barrel?

If it is a factory offering it would be stamped on it, that being said, I have never heard of a fluted bull barrel, even in they aftermarket, there might be a chance that there is some info on the barrel at they end that screws into the receiver, in any case that's a new one for me.

RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.
If it is a factory barrel it would be a 26" SS Fluted Varmint contour. Savage still uses that same type of barrel on the 12 VLP models. IIRC Savage uses a 1:9.5" twist rate for their 7mm Rem Mags.
Not to contradict Dean, but the only Savage Factory barrels I have run into that have the twist rate stamped on them are the special offerings like the 1:7" 223 barrels and the 1:9" 22-250 barrels for example.

Is it stamped savage on the barrel anywhere at all,

Doh, misunderstood. I was thinking you meant the twist rate would be stamped on it. Yes you are correct, if its factory it would have "Savage" stamped someplace on it.Originally Posted by scope eye
