What are the specifics that a person looks for in a new barrel for a black powder cartridge rifle? Manufacture? Is there a difference in groove type and rate of twist? ______________________ Are you gonna pull those pistols or whistle Dixie? | ||

perhaps a 45-70 or a 40-90 maybe. I have not really decided yet. This project is still in the thinking stage. I have a few questions before I can make a definitive statement on caliber or barrel. Will a shilen or douglas barrel work work for a BPCR or do I need to look at a barrel designed specifically for the BPCR? Do the lower pressure black powder cartridges shooting lead bullets need a slower twist than high powered smokeless rifles that shoot jacketed bullets? ______________________ Are you gonna pull those pistols or whistle Dixie? | |||
