...I've been searching the web a bunch today for a smoothbore.
Scott, have you looked at Track of the Wolf for a smoothbore? LINK

Here's Ol' Two-Fer the 20ga smoothbore that took two deer with one shot. It took this Bison with 80gr's of 2ff behind a 595 patched round ball went in one side and out the other.
Very interesting gentlemen. I just wish all the pics worked. (Some are broken).

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

They all show on my screen...
Page 1 pics are broken for me.

Been admiring that one by Tom Greco for several weeks that Track has. But too much for my broke azz. I have one of his his huntng pouches. He’s quite the craftsman!

Here’s mybfirst one from page one again. My Fusil de chasse.
Hope it works.

It does, sir. Thank you. I can't afford them, but I love the older guns. My oldest would be a Sterlingworth SXS 12ga. More than 100 years old.

I hunt with it each year, as well. I have a modern muzzleloader, but nothing like you gentlemen use. Fascinating.

I did some work in the movies as well. Army of Darkness, China Beach, Murder She Wrote, and a few others. But I never got to use a smooth bore. Perhaps one day. I have a customer that crafts some might pretty muzzleloaders.

Just put my thinking cap on and realized I have a 54 caliber Renegade that I don't use. Now to see if I can find a 20 bore barrel for it.
I wonder if JES or someone could rebore the 54. It would easy remove the rifling, and you definitely have enough steel. Might need to grind a cutter. Be interesting if one of the small barrel makers would do it. But, they are busy making barrels that earn them more money, than "cool" projects.

Bobby Hoyt in Fairfield PA, could ream a 54 Thompson to 62. I think he charges 50 bucks plus shipping. He does first class work. 717 624 6696. He does not do internet, you have to get him on the phone. He is always busy, so call often to get in.
