A person is far ahead to use 4140-4150 hot rolled gun barrel quality or better steel.
1137 will work if hot rolled and of proper quality but the chrome-moly steels are better.
Cold rolled steels of any alloy, steels with high levels of lead, phosphorus etc or other free machining steels should be avoided regardless of the strength they might appear to have on paper.
