Barrel Steel Recommendations
« on: Today at 05:50:54 PM »
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!
