Default t/c renegade winter project finished

I just finished the winter project on the renegade 54 cal with the custom barrel from t/c 1 in 66 round ball barrel twist
I have to go with fiber optic only because the eyes are not what they used to be.I just may take some rubbing coupound to cut the finish a little .I used about 20 coats of Formby's tung oil LOW GLOSS

That is a real nice looking rifle there. You did a great job on it.

Looks REAL nice lonewolf. Looking forward to your first range report.

I 'kinda' like Renegades. That flinter has me drooling.
