Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Muzzleloaders .45 can Lyman Plains Rifle (I think)

That's a nice looking rifle. I can't say that I can identify it though. Are you sure it's a .45? Looks a little 50 ish!

Doesn't look to have been used much. I think you got a good deal there.

Yeah, it does look like a .50, but there are a couple of balls in the patchbox and they measured right around 11mm (roughly .440). They were a close fit in the bore. I assume that Mavi just used the same locks & stocks with the same barrel blanks regardless of bore, so the .45's are kinda "beefy". Should be very easy shooting.

It doesn't seem to have been fired. Yet. Still have to pay for it and I've already got a tab there....

Well, if your not going to jump just send me all the information on it and I'll give it a good home!

Ha ha!
I'm sure ill end up buying it but if somehow I dont, I'll make sure you get a shot it it. Really nice gun just caught me after I had bought a couple of rimfires.
Just bought a bunch of .45 projectiles to go with it. Still need some smaller Maxi Hunters and/or some Ball-ets.
