What do you shoot in it?
Aim small, miss small!
That is just too cool in my book.
I want one!!! Tell us more about it. What is the barrel? Is it an insert or is it cut at .22? What is the twist on the rifling? Now I've got my next project.
Are you sure you can stand the kick from that big boy? LOL
That is one mighty fine looking smoke pole and I bet it is great fun! Thanks for sharing and it looks like an enjoyable time spent in the woods!
The pellets for the Sheridan air rifle are .20
Aim small, miss small!
Are you shooting it with black powder or smokeless ? My experience with small bore muzzleloaders shooting BP is that they foul very quickly.

4f. No issues w foulng. I generally shoot about 20x in an outing. The pellet skirt does a nice job of scraping.
It is smooth rifle (not rifled)
Plenty accurate to the 30y or so I shoot it at. The branch above was at 25y

I tried .177 and 20. The 22 worked best
A .22 caliber black powder rifle.......here and I been looking for a .32 for hunting squirrels and such......that is just too cool..

That is impressive and not something I thought was around. Very nice.
Any idea of pellet weight and velocity?

I'd say that would be a specialty rifle and a fun proposition. Bear?
Young guys should hang out with old guys; old guys know stuff.
Is it a percussion rifle?
First picture shows a flintlock.
Which takes the most powder, the pan or the barrel?
I loved that rifle the first time you showed us , now I love it even more ! gotta be fairly quiet too ? Gotta start planning on somehow some way of making one for myself .
If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
