.223 Encore rifle barrels

[shenck]

What is the ate of twist in a .223 Encore rifle barrel? I can't find any info on their web site or in their catalog. The contender pistol barrels have a 1 in 12 twist. I would like to load 70 grain bullets, and a faster twist rate would be better for these bullets.

The standard rate of twist for 223 TC Encore barrels is 1in12.
EABCO offers 1in7 and 1in9 options for Encore's at their site. They are also $375.
