Re: Slow twist barrels

Steve - what is the twist and breech/muzzle dimensions of those barrels, Please? I understand they are round at this time.
Colin, does Joe make tapered octagonal or octagonal/round, or merely round barrels?
I tried to find a web site, to no avail unless I wanted oak barrels.
Joe does tapered Oct, straight Oct, Oct to round and unturned blanks...
www.thegunworks.com/
On the left there is a tab "Custom Gun Building Parts" Then Click on "Barrels" Then there is a list of Oregon Barrel Works Barrels to choose from, if you don't see exactly what you are looking for give him a call and talk to him. His barrels are cut rifling on a sine bar so he can do about anything...I do know that he has a couple of limitations, nothing bigger than 2" OD and nothing longer than 35". He can cut the rifling as shallow or as deep as you want and in about any twist you want. I usually buy unturned blanks from him but I know he has the equipment to profile a barrel.
Hope that helps,
Colin
But he uses leaded screw stock, 12L14. Not gun barrel steel.
At least when I talked to him a few years ago.
