    I started with a 54 caliber one and had Bob Hoyt rebore it, to get an appropriate twist and rifling form.

    Yes buy a beater barrel that will drop in your TC stock like I did and send to Bob Hoyt and he will send you back a 1-60 RB shooter that you will kill everything you aim at I can not find my address book but use search button or someone will chime in (he does a LOT of barrels for folks here) Ed

    Call early or late in the day and let it ring and ring.

    Nobade, you got it! A bad barrel is cheap and a re-bore is around 100 bucks!

    Dogmann, flint or percussion, reboring a TC is a great way to go.
    If you find a Renegade that someone pyrodex'd and neglected, it's a diamond in the rough.

    There's a .56 smoothie Renegade on the shelf that got scaled up by the previous owners cleaning habits that I've just never made up my mind about.
    Maybe a minie barrel? Or a what? Maybe for paper patched .58's? Fast twist for solid bases? Just don't know.
