I can get my hands on a 1 in 14 twist .458 barrel made of 4140 steel on the cheap. I know 45-70's typically have a 1 in 20 or 22 inch twist. I'm looking to launch 300 to 400 grain bullets at 1800 to 2000 fps. Does anyone have an opinion on the suitability of the 1 in 14 twist for this purpose? This is for a sabotless smokeless muzzle loader build.
