Default RE: Lyman Great Plains Flintlock Rifle

It's coming back to me now. I recall that those are almost identical to the recommendations which Thompson Center had for their Renegade .54 percussion rifle.

I recall, after several years, that I really enjoyed shooting round balls. Not sure why, maybe they were more accurate than the Maxis I used. It makes a little more sense to go ahead and get the 1:32" rifling and use sabot type bullets like Maxi balls. That doe I shot probably couldn't have hit the ground faster if I had shot her with a Maxi though.
