I'm not familiar with why, but even today many of the muzzle loader/black powder only barrels are made from a different steel than barrels intended for cartridge fired firearms. 1137 fro the BP only/ML barrels and then the standard 4140 CM and 416 SS for the rest.

Again, I'm not sure why, just something I've noticed...
