ron and bartlein will make gaintwist as well.
look for 6 grooves or more, rifling 0.0035 to 0.004 deep.
18 twist will likely be o.k and 16 would also be o.k.
do not get a deep grooved round ball rifled barrel.
stainless is less inclined to grab lead than chrome moly , and releases it more readily.
that is if you like the look of it compared to chrome moly.
bead blasted stainless looks good and cools better than smooth.
keep safe,
