Re: new rifle
do er anyway you like of course but a heavy 34" 45 barrel is no joy for offhand if you have any planned. 30 or 32 would be better balanced. No bs I shoot one in a Mt roughrider and it is for me as I say.

Re: new rifle
You would be a lot better off to go with a standard chamber and forget that goofy Orille Loomer debacle...
If you doubt me, go ahead and name one competitor that is winning with one of his chambers.

What are your plans to use this rifle for. It is going to be too heavy for silhouette. Any match shooting or just gong shoots and hunting?

Re: new rifle
Jackrabbit you apparently know very little history of firearms, my chambers and leads are based on original guns if someone wants to be more historically correct that’s his business. I have an original with the target it shot in 1877 to the best of my knowledge no one has shot a better group today using pp bullets at one thousand yards. The chamber in that gun is .472 at the end of the case with about a 2 degree lead, I have 2 originals with the same chamber one is in pristine condition.

You might want to call them and make a correction, you have the cheek piece on the wrong side
Real gun powder is black.
