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.

Here's the target for the NorthForks - 25yds off a bag, iron sights. Hunting leopards over dogs the range won't be more than that.

Flew in an airshow in Smyrna years ago, beautiful country.

Best regards,
