    Proof testing

    I have been admiring some of the original smooth bores for sale on another web site. Some of these are resonably priced but are presented with a warning that they are collecters only. Do any of you have a procedure for proof testing an older gun that appears to be in good mechanical condition?

    breechplug removal

    This is a t/c renegade .54 barrel,I replaced with a green mountain 1 in 70 barrel. The t/c barrel is not something I will use in 54 again, thought I would ream it out to a smooth bore.

    Breech plug removal

    Do any of you fella's have a secret system for removing a breech plug that refuses to budge. Have tried penetrating oil soak and heat from a propane torch(I'm hesitant to get it any hotter) all to no avail.

    How to ream out barrel

    After considering this for a while and borrowing on some of Horse Doctors information.Here is what I will try. Will grind the first 3/4" of the bit the diameter between the lands then follow Horse Doctors procedure. This should give me somewhat of a pilot to help maintain a true cut. Thanks...

    How to ream out barrel

    I am replacing a T/C 54 barrel with a slower twist Green Mountain. Is it possible to turn the T/C barrel into a smooth bore? If so is it possible to do it myself?
