Hoyt Rebore

[BigSkyRambler]

Anyone have a recent cost for Bobby Hoyt to bore a .54 flintlock to .58 or .60? TIA.

I got a smoothie rifled to 62-cal for $80, so I'd imagine whereas he needs to drill it first that it might be around $120. Call him, he'll tell you, call early, 8 to 9am and just hang up and try again if he doesn't answer. Recommend you not leave a message ...

I just received a barrel back from him on Friday, June 14. Cost for a rebore, re-rifle and rebreech was $140 plus shipping. I think his base cost for ream and rifle is $125. Call him before you send it, or you will be on the long list.

Does he chamber single shots?

I do not know. I don't think he does any cartridge rifles, but you'd need to call and ask.

He does. He has also rifled a few rolling block shotguns for me, making dandy gauge rifles.

He has done single shots. I had two done. One was a Springfield 1871 rolling block that someone had reamed out the chamber to fire 28-gauge shotgun shells. He did a chamber and liner for me, as well as repair of the extractor. He later did a Springfield 1879 carbine that has a bad pitted area in the bore. He replaced the bore with a .458", 3 groove, 1-48" twist liner. Same groove and twist as original but now I can shoot jacketed bullets in it.

Call him early in the day, 8-9 o’clock. Don’t get discouraged if he doesn’t answer immediately.
