I recently purchased a Colt Match Target HBAR II rifle. I have heard that this rifle might have a SAAMI chamber. Does anyone know whether this is true, or where I might find more info on this topic on the internet? Thanks in advance.

  Here is a excellent link that goes into great detail, regarding the differences.

  If you have any questions about the chamber dimensions on your rifle, I would contact Colt or whoever the barrel maker is, if known.
  
  Because of the "3 L's", I'm sure they will have precise data regarding the chamber dimensions, and the recommended ammunition to fire in your rifle.
