BRNO ZKK-601 Tech details?

[Pirate]

I recently bought a ZKK-601 in .308, and I'm looking for some technical details about it. I'ts a '74 model, and is all original, far as I know. i'd like to know what the twist rate of the barrel is, but seeing that it's still being kept at the shop in the Big Smoke while the licensing is sorted, I was hoping to get some info from here?

I managed to get a copy of the CZ550 owner's manual off the web, thinking that it should in general be the same, but it's got very little real technical info... and I guess the czech's had other thing to think about in '74, so never got around to writing a manual for the ZKK series

So: any ZKK fundi's out there that's willing to share some knowledge?

Thanks!

I have Googled Brno for many years and they just do not seem to have a website or any such thing.

I have a Brno ZG 47 in 9.3 x 62, I have been offered 60 grand sight unseen for it, but do you think i can find any info on it.

I Wrote to Gregor woods and he gave me a bit of info but he too reckons that Brno/cz info is thin on the ground.

There's a nice write-up in "Bolt Action Rifles" by de Haas, expecially concerning the ZKK 600 series. You'll find it on Google Books (type in "bolt action rifles" BRNO ZKK it should be the first link). Hmmmm.... methinks I should read that again as well!
