Default tc white mtn carbine

I just bought one of these used. 50 cal x 24 in barrel. I was told that it had a fast twist to compensate for the short barrel but when I went to clean it the ramrod only goes through a little more than 1/3 of a turn in the 24 in. I figure that to be around 1 turn in 60 in? or thereabouts? Is this possible? Did TC make a slow twist barrel? Would the gun have a preference for patched balls with such a long twist? I was hoping to shoot .44 X300 gr. XTP in Hornady sabots. Will they work ok or amI in the market for a different barrel for my gun?
