New used rifle arrived!

[Curley 50 cal]

Well done Track of the wolf! Rifle arrived two days early and was exactly as you describe it would be. Totally pleased and Thank You!! This one is a female in 36 cal. I haven’t settled totally on a name but being a Lancaster Rifle, think I may call her Red Rose, Rosebud or simply Rosie. Votes and opinions welcome!!

I have to say its beautiful, but then I have her cousin The Sheetz Virginia rifle, which has a lot of the same looking parts on it.

I just got a TVM Lancaster myself. Mine is in 54 caliber, and it is very fast, and very accurate.
The barrels was good, but I ran down a bit of polishing compound, and now it is like glass. Loads and cleans easy.
I think you will enjoy your shooting sessions.

If you had the exact rifle in your hand last week, then I would like to express my appreciation that you did not buy it.

Yes it was advertised as a swamped barrel. They did not specify the twist.

Got “Rosebud” to the range for the first time. First load work up trial at 50 yards on a bench with 30 grains FFF Goex, 350 cal hornady pure lead round ball and a cotton 0.15 mink oil lubed patch. Yielded 3 1/2 group on a breezy day. Next will shoot same parameters but change to a 0.18 pillow ticking patch. Will post a photo if I feel proud of results. Lock is very fast!
