Getz Barrel
« on: April 15, 2014, 03:20:58 AM »
By any chance does any one know what twist Getz uses for his 45cal round bottom barrels . I have one and it seems to like a light charge to shoot one hole groups

Pretty sure every Getz barrel I ever owned had the twist stamped on the bottom flat, so if you want to be sure take it out of the stock and check.

Their stamping is pretty light, easily filed off when draw filing.

Do you really draw file the bottom flats of your barrels, Tom?
