I acquired a TC Seneca in 45 cal today. Was advertised as a Hawken but as soon as I saw the skinny barrel I knew it wasn't. Anybody have one or shoot one. I shoot both Hawkens and Renegade but no experience with the Seneca. It's in beautiful shape, fired only 20 times, cleaned and stood in the closet. Low serial # and no warning on the barrel. Wood is immaculate.
Good job. I scored one used a couple years ago. Metal is good but looks gray like the finish is a little thin and the finish on the wood is a little rough, but mechanically it's very good. I ran some loads through mine to see what it liked. Shootin' Goex FFg, 65 grains under a .440 PRB or 70 grains under a 245 grain (Lyman mold) cast pan-lubed with SPG works best. It's not brilliantly accurate but a fun little gun. The PRB load is easy on the shoulder. The conical leaves a bit of a bruise after a couple shots.
