RE: whats the T/C twist of this ML?
Many of the barrels are stamped what their twist is. It would also suggest from the length this might be an after market barrel. Green Mountain Barrel Co. makes a 32" barrel that will drop right into the stock of the Thompson Center Hawkins.
If it is a standard Thompson Center barrel it would have a 1:48 twist. They were meant to shoot roundball and conical. By your statement of it is a roundball barrel I am guess it is a 1:66 or 1:70 twist barrel after market barrel.
I know Thompson Center years back made some custom rifles in Hawkins I believe. They still had a 1:48 twist as I remember....
