.45 1:18” barrel
Quote from michigan muzzy on 07/07/2023, 18:09Ive got a .45 1:20” barrel on my 700 right now, i’m playing with some different powders and bullets, seeing if anything really leaps out and says “Hell Yeah”! I kind of like bore size bullets like the NP Pinpoint 350. But sabots are so much less expensive to develop loads with. What (available) powders are some of you shooting with bullets this heavy? Or lighter?
Also, i’m wondering if anyone has a 1:18” twist .45 barrel that they might like to trade for. Mntn Monkeys belief in the faster 1:18” has me convinced. Anyway, what are y’all shootin in yer R700? Pics would be cool.

Quote from Sideshow on 07/09/2023, 06:04Muzzy you forgot to mention its a barrel nut 45 with ASG modual ignition . Howdy Sam !!! Yep stateing barrel contours is pretty important when it comes to loads , and you know that too already . No biggie , just a reminder .
Its been awhile so im also going to remind you of BLL lube for cast bullet shooting . But i do think jacketed is best and a good move towards .
I think Kyle or SW would be good sources to help with Quickloads development of loads Schooling . Both are good guys . My phone is down for the count needing replaced . Theyre better anyway . This subject is one in all honesty that REALLY NEEDS A DETAILED WORK UP ON AS IT APPLIES TO A MUZZLELOADER . Some things require juggled for a muzzy application .
Myself Sam unless youd find a even trade i wouldnt feel awful haveing a 1 in 20 . I got one too barrel nut and all . You just gotta stay lighter on the bullets . That 300gr Aeromax @2550 with 62gr of H4198 out of mine is a DEVASTATOR and CRAZY ACCURATE . Yet if id buy a new barrel it would be the 1 in 18 for more versatiliy honestly –> SABOTED !!! Yep , not a doubt in my mind . We are Hunters first and foremost . The 45 is a bazooka in all honesty . The sleek 300gr bore rider will shoot everything we ever care to kill with realistic field yardage sitting under a tree either one of us would squeeze the trigger on Comfortably with field conditions .. I Know Mtn Monkey is Right there is zero doubt in my mind on that . But unless you would come up with a shouldered barrel id stay with what i had . Thats just penny pinching sense to me . Get a lighter one too , #6 , it is safe with warp speed boomer loads and FAR easier to carry !!! Yes even 350gr sleek jacketed jobs sent Really Fast . That isnt you to seek warp speed heavy loads so why carry the Lard ?? Its not needed for what you do . Just being honest and practicle . That Gould will be fine because its Stubby and Short in a 1 in 20 BLL lubed faster than youll ever shoot it . Trust me . You will be limited saboted though with heavier 40s . But i dont see you shooting over 400yds to really need them . 60grs of N120 and a 195 Barnes MZ in a Lt Blue @ 2800 is a Really Nice accurate lower recoil load that Will Exit and Nothing is gonna run far . My opinion buddy to buddy trying to save you a few $$$ . By the way Brux will recontour one of their barrels for $50 last i checked . Being its cut rifled you wont end up with enlarged bore size like what happens with a button rifled barrel as they arent safe to even flute .
