Felt my Lyman barrel was fouling up to easily and decided to give it a thorough cleaning including a scotchbrite polish job I read about this forum. Well after cleaning I decided to run the ol' bore scope down the tube to admire my handy work and was absolutely shocked at what I found! There was a pretty large crack going most of the way around the interior of the bore about 1/2" - 3/4" in front of the breech plug. I've been shooting this thing a dozen times a year for the last 10 years! I shoot only RB's with 60-80 grains of Goex FF. Never double loaded or fired with the ball off the powder. I don't think I'm going to shoot this barrel again. I looked around briefly and couldn't find a replacement barrel for a LH percussion GPR. Any
one else ever see this sorta thing?
