I am not sure what the optimum twist might be for shooting 40 cal bullets from a 45. I think we already tried the 1-20 twist and it did not work out the best, I know that I can shoot 40 cals from a 1-24 very well in fact really well. I am more inclined to believe the 1-24 might be the wiser investment.

Talking to Del (MMP) or even Ron (Harvester) - the 45 market is not there that would allow them to make any major changes in the 40-45 sabot. What ever they did would have to be able to work in all 45's.

Actually I really like hunting deer with the 45's that I have and if the truth be know the 1-30 twist that my Knights currently have work very well for me, not to say if Knight were to come out with a 1-24 twist (50 or 45) that I would not really be interested because i would. If they came with a 1-20 or 1-22, I would be more inclined to wait and see.
