    Well, just thought I'd report on the progress. Got to shoot a couple times here last week and really, there's not much progress. Eh....maybe a little. I can get pretty good groups with 50gr goex fff but above that it goes away. Guess it's a little progress. Patches look near perfect @ 50gr but...

    Pedersoli Rocky Mountain reveiws ?

    Ya.....I was really leaning towards one, when they were one there website for $899. Then a couple days ago, I checked and they are up to $1099 !!! It's the closest thing to what I want, but for that kinda money, think I'll just build one the way I want it. Oh, ya mind me asking what you paid ?

    Info on "L. Camilla" rifle

    Ya....I dunno. The owner said it was intentional by the builder. Kinda his trademark. Didn't look all that bad really, just diffrent......in a funky 70's way HA. A very well made and well fit gun though. Then guy also said he thought L. was for Lou as best he could remember, and he was in New...

    OKay.....been iced in here in north Texas last couple days, so had some time to work on this barrel. Went ahead with the 0000 steel wool ordeal. After about 150 +/- strokes, it seemed to smooth up nicley. I tried the green scotchbrite pad after 40-60 strokes of the steel wool, but that seemed...

    That sounds like a good idea. Patches are new, just got 'em but will check them anyway to be sure. Thanks for the great advice all.

    Thanks all. Actually, I only shot it 3 times with the 777 @60gr. AFTER every thing else. Just a last resort/what the heck thing. The majority was with the Goex-3f @ 50-80gr. And a few shots with the Pyrodex before the 777....but no change. Oh, and I did a damp swab with track's bore clean after...

    It seems like maybe the patch is hanging up on a rough spot in the barrel or a rough groove or two? I found only 2 patches out of over 25 shots that were somewhat intact. Couple of 'em had a 1/3 or so ripped out of one side. The majority were just shredded pieces about the size of a dime. No...

    I got to shoot my new GM-IBS barrel this past Sat. It's a .50 cal drop in for T/C Renegade. I tried every powder I had with me, Pyrodex 2f, Goex 3f, and 777 2f. Varied the charges from 50 to 90 gr. .490 RB with .018 pillow tick patches lubed with mink tallow. Accuracy was there, but VERY...

    Pedersoli Rocky Mountain reveiws ?

    Ya, I seen the Cabela's sale. I'd sure like to inspect one before dole'n out the cash.

    Pedersoli Rocky Mountain reveiws ?

    Anyone got one of these? I been looking at them online and seems like a fairly decent Hawken replica. I don't care much for the rear sight, but that can be changed. I been contemplating my dream gun and trying to weigh building v.s. buying. This seems to be the closest thing to what I would...

    Capper.....have you checked here for a GM .54cal barrel? http://www.longrifles-pr.com/gminterbarrels.shtml Wish I'd searched a little more before I settled on the .50. Probly best to give 'em a call and see if they are in stock. Greenmntnboy.......your offer on the fabric is very kind sir. I'm...
