Default Chinese made Legacy

I was at the gun shop picking up another pack of GP 385's and asking about getting a case quantity deal on them and ballets when some guy comes in asking if they still had his muzzleloader. They said they were all sold out of muzzleloaders except for a couple of Legacy muzzleloaders. Curious as I am, I asked "Legacy?" So they brought out one of them. It has a solid wood stock. Action works by cocking the bolt back, which leaves the nipple exposed. Trigger releases the bolt to set off the #11 cap.

Has very short barrel 20", carbine like. It sells for $169.00. I asked if they carried it in .54 and he said he could get one in that caliber. I didn't think to ask about its twist rate, but I think it is fast twist 1:37 or faster. I actually found my self wanting it because I'd like a fast twist .54 with a carbine barrel to shoot a 580 grain hollowpoint at 1200 fps. Would deliver 1600 ft-lbs to 100 yards with only 65 grains 3f Goex!

Has anyone ever heard of this make?And have you heard of any problems with them?

Happy Hunting, Phil
