Also, what gun is that? I ask because I don't see a ramrod (which I assume you may not have replaced after reloading), but I also don't see a thimble for one on the lower side of the barrel. Just curious.
It's a New Frontier Cascade Magnum. Similar if not identical to the CVA Hunterbolt Magnum- it's made by CVA's parent company. I don't think they are manufactured anymore. It is a .45 caliber with a 1 in 28" twist. I removed the ramrod and thimble because when glass bedded the action to improve accuracy I got a little carried away and some of the bedding compound got in the groove where the ramrod sits. So after that I couldn't put the ramrod back in place. So now I carry a range rod with me whenever I'm out- kind of a pain sometimes, but that's life.....
