    Patent breech in underhammer

    I have been shooting 75 grains of 3F Swiss behind a 460 No Excuse bullet in my Green Mt. 1 in 28 twist Renegade flint barrel.Very mild shooting and extremely accurate.I am surprised to find that this is a possibly unsafe load.

    Patent breech in underhammer

    In reply to paulvallandigham about a .69 cal rifle my answer is I don/t have one.I really don/t have a need for anything that big.With the underhammer it is actually not to expensive to assemble barrels in different calibers.

    Patent breech in underhammer

    My concern was the screwing of the nipple into the somewhat thin barrel.On my original post I mentioned a 1.25 diameter .69 cal barrel.The barrel is actually 1.125 across the flats.Doing the math that leaves only .217 barrel thickness to anchor the nipple.This seems to be way to thin to me.

    Underhammer nipple location

    The action is a Deer Creek and the barrel that I am going to use is a 1.125 across the flats.It seems to me that the barrel diameter could affect the hammer line-up.

    Underhammer nipple location

    I am in the process of building an underhammer rifle and I would like to know how close to the breech plug that the nipple hole should be drilled?Also should the hole be drilled at an angle to compensate for the hammer angle?
