Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Muzzleloaders contender 209x50 barrel fit ? older frame ?

Peabody;

that one was a factory stock that happened to have nice wood, now & then TC lets some good stuff slip through.

Ed Kirkpatrick of Ed's TC's usually has wood buttstocks available, though he can he hard to catch up with now & then. his # is 405-879-0879. TC offered both synthetic & wood stock sets.

forgot to mention that it is my understanding the muzzleloader barrels were to have been dropped from production.

Match Grade Machine makes custom barrels & can also build you one, i also have a 26" stainless fluted 209x45 barrel from them with a smoke brake to vent that cloud of smoke to the sides when you shoot.

both the 209x45 & 209x50 TC factory barrels had relatively quick twist. i usually shoot the SST hornady bullets in sabots, 100 grains Pyrodex triple-7. groups run around 1.5" at a hundred or so.


i used that same combo in muzzleloader season this year in the TC factory barrel to take 2 deer, one of them a decent sized buck, that bullet performed perfectly.
