Never got to use my muzzleloader last year because I filled all of my tags during our regular bow season so I let my brother take it out. He missed a deer with it and said that he cleaned it and oiled it when done. By clean and oil apparently he meant wiping it with a reminder oil rag and throwing it in his porch closet. I picked it up the other day planning to try my Lee c430-310 bullets in some sabots. Much to my surprise the "cleaned" rifle now has a pitted barrel. Anyone know where I can find a new barrel for a 77/50? I tried Ruger but they don't stock parts for these anymore. Any of you guys ever rebarrel a muzzle loader? I'm thinking I may be able to find a cheapo break action, cut off the breech end, thread the barrel, cut the threads for my breech. I hope anyways. I looked for about 2 years for a very good specimen and really loved the rifle.
