    T/C Penn Hunter Carbine bore obstruction

    I agree. I don’t know what else it would be. I am assuming that they drill the larger hole directly into the barrel and then thread for the liner. I’ll have it whipped soon enough

    T/C Penn Hunter Carbine bore obstruction

    I can’t find much online about this specific model but all the pictures I see appear to have the same touch hole liner. See pic.

    T/C Penn Hunter Carbine bore obstruction

    I’m going to take it to a local gunsmith tomorrow to check out. I’m sure he can give me a quick answer as to what it is. I’ll update you guys on what he has to say about it. I gave the ram rod some good raps last night but nothing budged.

    T/C Penn Hunter Carbine bore obstruction

    This is what I’ll try to do tonight. I thought maybe that ‘barrel’ was threaded on both sides and that’s how it was installed into the rifle

    T/C Penn Hunter Carbine bore obstruction

    Yes I can look down the bore and see threading protruding into the actual bore which is causing my ramrod to stop an inch shy of the patent breech/ bottom of barrel

    I need to specify that the threads I am seeing are on the outer diameter of the obstruction (lack of a better word here). This isn’t the liner as I can take that out and still see the threading inside the bore. Once I get home tonight I can take better pictures.

    T/C Penn Hunter Carbine bore obstruction

    I’m trying to figure out how to take a decent picture of what I am seeing. Where your touch hole appears to be is just threads sticking out into the bore

    T/C Penn Hunter Carbine bore obstruction

    This is great I’ll look into this today. My other option was to contact a local gunsmith to get this fixed. It’s just bizarre to me. I’ve owned several different muzzleloaders and this is the first time I have ever seen this

    T/C Penn Hunter Carbine bore obstruction

    You’ll have to forgive the fantastic artwork. So the touch hole liner is just fine it’s the threading that the touch hole liner goes into that is protruding into the bore thus not allowing my jag to bottom out. Great information I am receiving here. I’ve just never ever seen a muzzleloader with...

    T/C Penn Hunter Carbine bore obstruction

    Hello All, Yesterday I bought a flinter T/C Penn Hunter Carbine in mint condition. Even had the original price sticker on it! Got it home, and put the ram rod down the barrel to mark it, and it came down to the touch hole and stopped. I thought maybe there was a charge in it or a dry ball, but...
