I only fired patched balls and rifle is very accurate. The rifle will come with the original wood ram rod, an aluminum ram rod, ball starter, powder measure, nipple wrench, extra nipple, and a T/C tang sight. I took my first whitetail buck with this rifle so it knows what to do in the woods...

Please pm with questions or for additional pictures. If you request more pictures please include an email address to send pictures to (much easier than trying to post here).

Looking for $500 shipped/insured for a well equipped rifle. First " I'll take it " gets the goods...

these 1/48s shoot round ball all out of what a fast twist is supposed to. and are deadly with plains bullets.
someone is sleeping on this one.
