After a couple of other projects are complete I am thinking of chambering this barrel for one of the 50's and shoot some heavy solid bronze or copper bullets, just to see how they work out.

If one follows the double A line of thinking, faster twist gives us more bullet RPM and a tendency to retain straight line penetration. Maybe so, maybe not.
