Hi Cam,
I have a Fox in .222 (although no mention of it being a "2"). I just measured the twist and it appears to be about 1-13.5".
Nice and accurate with Sierra #1345 55 gr. over RL7. I dug out some targets I shot just after I got it. One has 4 shots in 7/8" (+ a flyer; 5 shots total) at 100 m; Target at 200m has 3 shots in 9/16", 1 more brought it out to 1 3/8" and a real flyer (?) made 2 1/8" OA. I shot one target at 300 m: 4 shots into 1 7/16" + a flyer a couple of inches to the right. Not an exhaustive test but not shabby.
