I have one of those barrels on a T/C Hawken caplock and it has become my favorite deer hunting rifle.

Shooting it last week with a variety of bullets (250 gr XTP - 300 gr XTP - 350 gr cast .457 lead in an MMP orange sabot) all over 80 gr fffg Goex and all were well inside "minute of deer" groups at 50 yards. I sight in for 75 yards and it's good with a dead-on hold out to 100 yards for deer hunting.

I love that rifle's short overall length! Very handy in a stand, and very good from the ground, plus it is very stable for me when shooting offhand.

Looks like yours is a good performer, too!!!!!!!!
