Marauder .177 F&T with Lothar Walther barrel - anyone know twist rate?

[jdanvers]

Subject says it. Just curious. I've downloaded and installed the 'Strelok Pro' app onto my android phone and this is just one of the many questions it asks when setting it up. Tom Holland - I'm kind hoping this will catch your eye <grin> as I was just watching one of your videos recently where you mentioned something about twist rates. My simple little mind "dinged" and said ".... if anyone will know it'll be that guy. "

The app, as I have it setup so far, is pretty good -- it's not dead on yet - but pretty close! I'm hoping over time to get it so that when I feed it a distance on the main page that you see when first fired up ( assuming all other defaults applicable in the cfg ) and then say "Calculate!" -> then "Reticle" that it'll be spot on. As mentioned - it's pretty close - but not quite there yet.

Babaganoush - thanks. I googled some just now and I'd have to agree - thank you. As I pick up my cell phone to key this in, now I (remember) that it's also asking if it's a right or left hand twist (??). I'll read more into some of the google hits I just saw - maybe it's there - you happen to know that to per chance? ( is it righty / lefty - seriously? lol ) (( apparently it could or might make a difference . . . . ??? ))

Jdanvers, all Crosman barrels are right hand twist.

Danvers, if you go to the Crossman Airguns site and click on the "custom shop", then click on "Marauder", then click on "barrels", then click on "more info" it lists the .117 crossman and Lothar Walther having a 1:16 twist.

leadfoot -- well that's handy . . . I'll check that out after I get home from work - appreciate it - thanks.
