Great shooting there Powderburnt! Trigger it has a 30" full octagon barrel, 1-16 twist Badger barrel. Haven't weighed the rifle yet. I found that rifle by calling Wyoming Armory about a Ballard they had for sale, I didn't get that rifle it was a 38-55. The gentleman on the phone I was speaking with said he had been thinking about selling his personal rifle which was a 40-65 and wanting to know if I would be interested it. End of story, I bought it. There is a couple of 45-90 Cody Ballards around for sale, found one 45-70 with a 40-65 barrel also for sale.
As far as shooting it offhand, I've got to work on that, the barrel is a little heavier than what I've been using, let me work on it before we do any pics. Still figuring out the best way to hold it.
