Yep, that's all I've ran into, just wondering if they ever offered 45 cal in 1/66 ?

I think there were custom after market barrel with the 1 in 66 twist. T/C production barrels were button rifled 1 in 48.

I have one with 1:66" Green Mountain barrell, and both a percussion and a flintlock with factory 1:48" barrells. I have a .50cal Pennsylvania Hunter with a factory 1:66" barrell and this is Engraved on the barrell. I believe my .45cal Seneca is 1:56"

Asked me the question, so I ask all y'all. To see if there was such a T/C
Factory Barrel 1:66 in 45 cal. So if he
Wants one he'll have to get a custom

 

[2 shots]

tell him to shot it first ,an accurate r/b load can be found. some make too much of twist. is he a competitive shooter??

Yep, he has and has killed 2 eight points buck in the last 2 weeks
It's a nice T/C 45 Hawkins 1:48
Shooting PRB. I do not know why
He would want another Barrel, also
Has a T/C Hawkins 50cal, 1:66 twist
It's a question he thought of, having
Never seen the 45 in 1:66 I guess
The best for him, if he must have 1;66 for his 45. We live only 45 minutes from Rice Barrel Co.
(And Not a competition shooter)

He could possibly contact Deer Creek Products … They have a website.

They bought Tip Curtis’s inventory, Tip had a massive amount of barrel blanks on hand.
I purchased a couple from him years ago and built a barrel for my TC’s.



I have never seen a .45 cal 1 in 66 barrel for a TC from the Fox Ridge shop. Not too say they didn’t make one..
