They shoot great, thats what the faster twist is made for, stabilizing longer projectiles.

that said, existing records of the Hawken Shop show that almost all of their cap guns featured deep cut rifling .008-.012" and a 1:48" twist.

Go figure, we know so much today that isn't historical.

I have a TC Renegade with a 1/48 twist and it will shoot Lee REAL conicals into an inch at 50 yds. It should work fine for you. Smiler
