RE: Tradition's Woodsman Hawkins
Kevin I don't know if Tradition's makes a Hawkins anymore with the 1-66 barrel. This was bought many years ago when they first came out with this model. All their new ones are 1-48 twist. Many of them still do a real good job on roundball.
I've seen the Tradition's Woodsman listed for around $259.00 tp $300.00 but I can't remember now ifI was checking out flintlocks or percussion. Probably flintlocks knowing me.
Lymans still makes a slow twist 1-60 barrel on the Great Plains Rifle. They are excellent shooters as I have a couple friends that shoot them and can do some impressive shooting.
Later that afternoon when I was about to clean the rifle I saw two more out in the woods feeding. So I did a quick swab of the barrel andwent out and popped them as well. This should keep the rascals out of the buildings for a while. I notice now when I hit the back door latch, they all scatter.
