Is it a factory heavy or a full bull barrel??? Dave A muzzleloader forend might work....

Looks pretty close to a full bull. Not much taper at all. I will have to measure muzzle to see.

after the chamber swell the barrel looks the same diameter all the way to the muzzle. the chamber swell to the barrel isnt much of a diameter difference at all.

Same measurement I'm getting from my muzzle loader barrel, hole spacing looks the same.
