Be careful ordering these barrels from Utah Air. I ordered the 22 kit on the 27th and it said "IN STOCK". Nothing about backorder. Called today because it hadn't shipped and they said, "Oh, it's a backordered item. We'll ship it out as soon as we have stock." When I purchased it said that it was in stock and said nothing about it being a pre-order or backordered.
I'm really surprised because I've always had nothing but square dealings with Utah air and have done literally THOUSANDS of dollars of business with them. Unfortunately, I guess it's best to call them going forward before purchasing anything.

FX USA, can you share with us twist rates for the 800mm barrel kits as well as what weights they best stabilize?

I spoke with one of the guys at Utah. He said the .25,800mm barrels are 1 in 18. So that would make the liner a superior heavy. It's the same twist as all the other lengths of superior heavy. He also said that in this caliber the superior heavy barrels seem to stabilize all weights of slugs very well. Hopefully someone else can help with info about the other caliber kits. I would love to hear from fx on this.

Matt Dubber says that the 22 800mm are 1:14 on this video:
Skip to 4:13 to see where he mentions the twist rate.

I see 5 - 6 and 700 mm heavy liners for .177 are listed now, though just 500 mm in stock.
Set up a notification for a 700 mm CUZ daddy need to get himself some of that action.

These are listed as 1:17 though

I hope this will enable shooting of the heavier .177 slugs, CUZ on my regular liner, thats just not happening for me, even if some South African boys claim to have been doing that just fine.
Mind you 13 grain will still be my go to, but 20 grain and about 50 foot pound of energy,,,,,, that i could see could be useable in some cases.
