I am looking to build my first replica Civil War cannon.
I am not sure what would be an appropriate, cost effective, barrel steel option.
I do not have the ability to do cast iron or bronze molds so I am looking to machine the barrel from steel.
I am curious what you guys use, recommend?
4140 MV? (what type and where to get it?)
DOM 1026?
Other?
I am going to leave this intentionally broad.
Thanks!
