Pecatonica River has GM .40 cal 15/16 38"L 1/48 twist that will fit the Lyman GPR, but you'll need to have them install the rear barrel lug unless you do it yourself. These barrels come complete and blued with breech plug installed,under barrel rib installed, Thompson Center type front and rear sights, rr thimbles installed, and a rr too for $260

That sounds like another good option. I was wanting to pick up a Lyman GPR in 54 cal. and that would be nice to add that barrel to it.
Who has the best price on a GPR?

Thanks

I have a .32 pedersoli frontier and like blackpowder62 said I can shoot all day without swabbing its all on your lube (I use mink oil).. and your load (I use 30grns)..and patch thickness..which like the others varies...I love my .32 iv taken all sorts of game and is fairly accurate out to 70 yards or so

I've mostly used a Traditions "Crockett" for squirrels. After nearly 14 years I let it go so I could get a flint Tn .32. I've never had a problem with fouling in the .32 or the .36. Find the right load, it should be fairly tight, and there won't be any swabbing between shots, NONE! They're cheap to feed, fun to shoot, accurate and reliable.
