I have a New England Firearms 20 gauge full choke single shot shotgun. Fairly recent production in excellent condition.
Would it be possible to reline this gun to 50-70 Government for only black powder use. I see that Track has liners that may be suitable dimensionally. Your advice is appreciated. BvT

Every lawbreaker we allow into our nation, or tolerate in our citizen population leads to the further escalation of law breaking of all kinds and acceptance of evil.
Since almost all aspects of our cultural existence are LIBERAL in most states, this means that the nation is on a trajectory to dissolution by the burden of toleration and acceptance of LAWBREAKING as a norm, a trajectory back to the dark ages of history.

Yes that can be done. If you have a lathe you can convert H&R Huntsman muzzleloader barrels with the 7/8x20 thread breech plug to a 50-70 or you can turn a suitable 50cal. muzzleloader barrel to fit your shotgun barrel as a liner and epoxy it in . I have built several of both.

do not go with the 1/20 twist barrel liner. way way too fast a twist for a 50 cal cartridge. you need no faster than a 1/28 or even a 1/32 would be better for that gun.
