beautiful rifle. I too, want to hear the range details-- bet it is gonna shoot as good as it looks.

mine has about 50 balls downrange now and DOES seem to be shooting even better. I ran a jag with 4/0 steel wool through it back and forth 50 times too. I'm very happy.

yeah, Indian Joe, I agree!

Bob put round bottom rifling and .011 grooves on my .58 rebore that I told him I would use for PRB. Shoots great, cleans "easy".

I don't know Boerrancher. This looked a whole lot like rust to me. Not yellow, brownish, orangish. I don't think that with 2 dry patches, then 4 wet ballistol patches used back to back in the bore, I...

Sorry to hear, Doug. My one experience with you and your work was exemplary. You can be very proud of your accomplishments. I'm praying for you.

none of my smokeless guns, (I have a lot) have any rust, and they're in the same environment. I didn't have any on my muzzle loaders, and even with them, it's only in the bores, till I changed to...

yeah, fgd135, hope I found that with the Barricade. After I get to the end of this can, I may go back to Hoppe's #9. That's what I started with in the "70's , it worked, and unlike others, I like the...

I cleaned with soapy water, flushed up and down with a patch and the hooked breach in the water bucket , then rinse with warm clear water. Next, couple dry patches, then 4 patches with 100% Ballistol...

I used soapy water, and then treated the bores and gun back before i "knew better" with Hoppe's #9 for smokeless guns and never had this problem. I now use Ed's red on my other guns. It's cheaper and...

I just in the last year or so started using ballistol for my front stuffers and thought I loved it. It seemed to be good for everything on the gun, wood included. Well, yesterday I took my guns that...

Yep I agree. I also have a SR 1911 and it shoots and runs like a dream. Send it back, it's new, let them fix it.

Don't rush it. You've only got 1 set of eyes

I had trouble earlier this am, obviously not now! Thank’s

I've been intermittent fasting for 16hrs daily for 5 or 6 years. I drink black coffee all morning to help with the hunger pangs. I put 1/4 tsp baking soda in the coffee to combat it's acidity 16oz...

My dad gave me one of those boxed Navy Arms Pistols 1860 in .36 cal in 1967 when I was in jr high. It had one of those molds in it and I made thousands of bullets with it and shot them. In those...

Yeah, TN, and that situation has gotten worse during, and after the pandemic. Prior to that, I got all my stuff from them and usually didn't have much trouble. They have SOME hulls now . Wads seem to...

I'm a member at the 16 ga Society site, there are a lot of people there that eat and sleep 16 ga. They can usually help with whatever you need to know. There are loading spreadsheets available etc.

I killed my first squirrel in 1960 when I was 6 with my dad's Stevens 107B single barrel (still have it). It almost knocked my down when I shot it, he always hunted squirrels with "hi-base" 6's, so...

yep!

16 ga 7/8 oz#8. handloads smokes'em. shoot where they're goin', not where they've been!

mine was $125 with 25.50 for return shipping.

I have run some 4/0 steel wool down this barrel, I read that was what "somebody" recommended that he did when lapping barrels. I didn't do it like that tho. That "somebody" was Lee Shaver, but I...

love it in my JES 38/55. I shoot it over 4227 and dacron for about 1350 fps. It shoots as well as I can.
