length vs twis rate
archeryrob:
Barrel length is not going to matter unless you are looking for a longer burning charge. Like using 2F over 3f and the amount of powder
1:66 is a round ball only twist and does it well. Sabots can get unstable as they don't spin enough
1:48 is a modified and can shoot slugs, sabots and round balls fairly well
1:36 or there about is what inlines use as the faster spin is better for sabots and slugs
Eric Krewson:
I did a search and found a year old listing for a .40 drop in.
Green Mountain .40 drop in barrel, 1-48 twist, percussion, blued, 1" across flats, modern 'primitive' sights, 29" long, fits TC Hawken and Renegade with 1" barrel channel. Purchased it as unfired, never have used it, looks new. $250 shipped in the US.
