Beautiful rifle GLWS!
Assuming like most CHeetah rifles it is a 14 twist meant to push the 52 class of bullet fast.

The Mk2 version has the 28 degree shoulder.

From the internet:

The 22 Cheetah was developed by Jim Carmichel, shooting editor of Outdoor Life magazine and Fred Huntington of RCBS fame. It appears to have originated in the late 1970's. The cartridge is essentially a full length Remington 308 BR case, with a smaller primer pocket, necked down to 22 caliber, but with the shoulder moved forward. What you end up with is a variation of the 308 Winchester necked down to 22, but using a special match case. This is not exactly new because there are in existence several slightly different versions made by necking the 243 Winchester case down, and these date back to the early 1960's. However, the 22 Cheetah is an original with regard to the 308 BR case and its smaller rifle primer pocket.

General Comments:

The major difference between the 22 Cheetah and its predecessors are the use of the lighter, more uniform BR case, blown out 40 degree shoulder angle and short neck. In other words, the case has been designed to benchrest specifications. It also has a greater powder capacity than any of the older versions. There are actually two case types, the MKI with a 40 degree shoulder angle and the MKII with the original 28 degree shoulder. The 22 Cheetah is somewhat more powerful than the 220 Swift, but ballistics were measured from a 27 inch barrel. The cartridge has proven to be superbly accurate and a very effective 300 yard varmint cartridge

Harley's, how many rounds will i get from the barrel before replacing
I shoot my 22-250 and swift , I shoot at these these velocities 3600 , 3700 . How much faster will the cheetah go.i am like you , I stayed within the speed limits , maybe a little faster not much. Thanks Buck

I am not shooting any where near those speeds
Appx. 3400 was the fastest with 80 grain bullets with 7 twist
I was looking for a solid 4-500 yard rifle that I could control the recoil to see impact
This fit perfectly
Barrel only has appx. 100 rounds through it
Not sure of how many is in the life expectancy, to many factors effect that from cleaning procedures to much powder, etc.

Dear Harley, this cheetah should last a while. I forgot how fast does a cheetah go , like this. I am thinking
4400 to 4600 fps. I can't do this , to me this is like having a classic car. I am thinking road runners, gtx , cuda ,chevelle, and ford all kinds and doing burnouts. I had a 70 roadrunner built, and never did burnouts.
I can't treat a rifle barrel like that way. I feel guilty I am abusing it.
Then again I maybe weird. A couple times i probably do it and red line the f.p.s. then have someone take pics of the Vapor trails behind the bullets, thanks Harley , Buck
