Cal you shoot smokeless powder out of yours, HunterJim?
JJ,
No smokeless, it is a plunger action with a #11 cap nipple at the rear of the barrel. It seems to work well shooting, but cleaning is a pain. Melvin told me he made about 300 of these rifles before he got around to designing his M209 (which can shoot smokeless). He was hunting with the M90 when I bought my rifle from him.
My rifle has a Lilja .500" barrel with a 32" twist and shoots conicals well. I mostly use bullets made for the length limited to twice the diameter rules of a couple of three Western states.
