Man, that thing is going to look AWESOME when you finish it. GREAT idea for salvaging the stock, and what a perfect use for the patchbox!!
Can't wait to see the finished result.

Wow!
I am glad the States I hunt tick toters in allow the .40 caliber. I just don't see the reason for having to jump up to a .50 or bigger unless your using prb only. Some of my conical are up at 260 gr. with a wool wad over my powder load.
Certainly looking good.
I've never owned or shot an underhammer, but they have intrigued me for a long time. As my home state of Minnesota gives indications of becoming "Condor Cali" regarding lead in ammo (special hunts now "no lead"), ignoring the complications for those of us using only traditional guns, I've considered acquiring a fast twist underhammer that I could use non lead slugs in. Aesthetically I see both beauty and ugly in them! Pretty cool. 
Intrigue can be rewarded by acquisition.....
If you go to the Under-Hammer & copper. You will have to anneal them or have to use a sleeve of plastic.I've never owned or shot an underhammer, but they have intrigued me for a long time.

In the interest of expediency, and as a fair share of UH guns are switch barrels, I shall proceed with a barrel on hand. It's cva 54 me thinks. Stay tuned!

YES !!! I been wishing to myself the whole time while following this post that you'd make it a 54.
Do you plan to put a wood forearm stock on it?
If l can get my woodsrunner front portion to cooperate then yes.
This may work out. I just need places to pin to and perhaps some bedding then I'm in business. The Woodsrunner forearm only needed a little rasping in the channel. The chubby barrel will ride a little proud of the wood but should be good.

Certainly will look different with the long forearm.
