    lyman gph 50 cal

    yes, that is why the GPH appealed to me... the faster twist of the GPH rifle -vs- the slower twist GPR rifle...I am craving a good conical shooter. All my TC's have 1-48 twists..the 1-32 twist of the GPH should be great with conicals!!

    william's wgrs sight for TC?

    Where does your William's sight mount on the barrel? My WMC is 54 cal. I also had trouble with finding a load that shoots good,,must be the 21" barrel...my gun is 1-48 twist. it shoots PRB and my hand cast 348gr REAL conicals pretty good. I sure burned alot of powder working up loads!!

    william's wgrs sight for TC?

    Anyone out there using William's "wgrs" peep rear sight on a TC with the octagon barrel?? I see Midway has these sights and they list one made for TC's with octagon barrels (Hawken, Big Boar or any with octagon barrel).

    I wonder if the tang/peep sight TC currently sells will work on the smaller cherokee and seneca rifles? The peep that is on my cherokee was on it when I bought it, but it looks like the sight in TC's catalog..it mounts using one existing screw at the top and then one hole was drilled and tapped...
