This isn’t an actual grade or specification of steel, but has become commonplace in rifle barrels. I’m trying to find what difference the addition of Vanadium makes to the ultimate and yield tensile strengths of 4150 in ordnance steels, and appreciate the help.
I’ve bought two blanks from Green Mountain listed as 41V50 that will be turned down to absolute minimum dimension for a thin wall double rifle, and would be helpful to get some tensile strength information (I have contacted Green Mountain for information on their supply, but no word yet).
Appreciate any information.
