Have been considering another .22 Hornet. Ran across an ad that claimed the Lux has a 1:14 barrel twist rate, as opposed to the standard 1:16 of the American. C-Z's site says they're the same - but this does have me wondering...

Unlikely to be 1 in 14, my mates hornet lux is 1 in 16 like my American.
Only 1 in 14 I have seen is the ruger.

The Savage Model 40 is 1:14,
as is the Kimber, and Cooper, I believe.

I've seen the Anschutz advertised as 1:15.7 .

cheers,
