Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Muzzleloaders Pacific Rifle Under Hammer

You guys reminded me that I have an early Renner made "Pacific Zephyr" 62 caliber (20 bore).
I purchased it from the original owner some 13 or so years ago. It came with a bullet mold, some balls, patches and felt wads.
Was purchased for Elk hunting. I shot it a few times and it ended up in the back of the safe.
If I remember right, It uses 175 grains of powder behind a 328 grain round ball and is very accurate though recoil is substantial shooting that much powder.
This rifle has the Forsyth style rifled barrel. A nicely figured Bastogne walnut buttstock and forearm.
It has the optional factory peep sight installed and all the paperwork, .610" bullet mold (never casted with).
It would be for sale if anyone is interested.
