RE: barrel twists
hey Bigbulls, I really appreciate the input there. In my searching, I have only found one 1/32" twist,although there are probably more out there.Mostly I've found 1/28". I'm getting lots of feedback from different sources, and the pros and cons are definitely there when comparing the 45cal. to the 50cal.. 90% of all that WalMart had yesterday was for 50cal.. I go for flat shooting and good placement instead of a massive bullet, so that's why I considered the 45cal.
In sifting out all the advice I've gotten, I gather that any of the guns except the 1/20" twist will perform for me if I figure out a good powder/bullet combination. I will only hunt whitetails. I also gather that a 45cal. is flatter shooting and more accurate when using the 1/28"-1/32" twists. Have I got it sorted out right? Thanks much again.
