Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Muzzleloaders Rem 700ML 50 cal

A while back I picked up a used Rem 700ML in 50 cal. It's an early gen 1 rifle that's seen better days but I couldn't pass up the price. I'm typically a 54 cal PRB shooter with my Hawken/Plains style half stocked rifles. Thinking about sending it off to Badger Ridge Industries for their sealed breach 209 conversion and using BH209 powder. The bore on the 700ML, unfortunately, is a little rougher than I like and am also thinking about getting it punched out to 54 cal and twist rate to accommodate bullets for the 500 S&W. But then, how much $$$ do you keep throwing at it?! I haven't used an inline in years, decades even, I like more traditional stuff, just me. But I'm a gun looney and like them all! Any pointers on who to talk to about a rebore? Thanks in advance, Dean.





I've found Sabots for 54x500 and 50x475. I do like big holes for ML's!
