Hello all. Just received my new kit from Track O The Wolf containing a finished 15/16ths 1 in 66 inch twist rate in 54 cal Green Mountain barrel. Has the under rib, sights and barrel end plug with the bolster. The wedge thimble and ram rod thimbles included . Blued a hunter blue that is not shiny.
I have not cleaned it yet. Just loosely installed in the stock. Fit is surprisingly good. Not much to do which I had heard is not the norm.
Really makes my rifle look more and more like a historic rifle. It looks more n more like some pictures of historic and genuine S Hawkins rifles with single wedges and 32 thru 36 inch barrels. If this shoots as good as it looks I may have to attack the cosmetics and color choices. Maybe a different trigger guard.
Can we have a discussion on the quality and shootability as well as bore smoothness as well as ideas on possible things to do for best accuracy.
I have desired one of these kits since they came out.
