458 twist rate

[E Butler]

What twist rate should a 458 Lott be?

1 in 14 should do the trick

Ok I just purchased a couple 458 Douglas barrels and I believe the twist rate is slower than that.
Thank you.

You need to check the bullets you plan to use. At the end of the day, they dictate the twist rate required.

Some will be 1 in 16. For black powder slower and much slower.
