[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 803628, member: 2736"] Homer is right about the twist. You need a 1 in 7 or 1 in 8. Green Mountain make decent barrels but I don, t think they make any 30 cal barrels in tight twist. So be sure that the barrel twist is no more than 1 in 10. A 1 in 8 would be your best bet IMO. My guess is that the twist is somewhere around 1 in 20 on the barrel you found (Ok for a Muzzle loader but not for center fire). It would be a shame to build the rifle and find out that it would not shoot accurately much over 100 yards. Brownell's has some barrels in stock and for the cost Shillen is hard to beat if they have the one you want. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
