I ordered mine through Bruce too. I see you have the 32" barrel. Did the brass parts on the butt stock also come with it? The only brass on my butt stock is the butt plate.

With iron sights, I was able to shoot 2-3" at 75 yrds using 2F Pyrodex RS. That's with PRB. .490. Good luck on you hunt. Knock em into tomorrow with that under hammer.

Nice looking! If you dont want to drill use the Quic kee scope mount from Dixie $ and you can change it to any 15/16 rifle you want in mins, Ive shot big loads and its never moved.Is the fore arm pinned or just the brass band? I did the part behind the hammersprig too with some scrap it sure gives you a different grip on the rifle. Since I cant get black powder here anymore Im playing with 777 its working out fine, again a very nice looking rifle you have.
