Different Steel Barrels

[John Wesley Hardin]

Could someone please give me some info on the following:
"Twist Steel Barrels: Are they safe with modern loads?
"Fluid Steel" Barrels: Are they safe with modern loads?
"Damascus Streel Barrels": Are they safe with BLACK POWDER LOADS?

I would appreciate your comments..Thanks, John Wesley Hardin:confused:

Damascus and twist are the same

Fluid is modern steel

As for safety, a gunsmith knowledgeable would have to xheck your particular gun to determine that

Lots of good info about it in this thread.

Twist is actually a lower-grade than a true Damascus. There are a couple makers that load low-pressure smokeless shells specifically for a damascus application. RST is one of the makers, I think...
