All three of my rifles are TC Renegades. This first one is a 45 with a 32" long 1-18 twist Green Mountain barrel. It has Lyman 57 SML peep sight set up to shoot out to 300 yards. The front sight is a Lee Shavers globe with a level.

This next two are the same except the one has set triggers. They bothhave a Green Mountain 1-28 twist Stainless steel barrel, Lyman 57 SML peeps, and a Lyman 17 AML globe sight with Lee Shavers inserts. Both of these guns are sighted in out to 300 yards. While all three guns are sighted in to 300 yards and I enjoy shooting targets at that distance, my first shot on anygame animal is always under 150 yards.It is nice to know if I need to make a long second shot for what ever reason I have the ability to do it.

I bought this one in 1977...It was made by Bob Watts (Foxfire V)...It was a .45 caliber but after a run in with a bear, I decided to
make a .54...It's now a .40 caliber...I killed about 25 deer with it while it was a .45 andin 1979killed my first wild turkey with this gun,
in Virginia, with a wing bone call that I had made...

I started on this one in 1988 and finished in 1990...It took me about 200 hours to complete...It's a .54 with a 38 inch barrel and a
small Siler lock...I mold my own balls for both rifles, buy pillow ticking in bulk from WalMart and make my own patch lube...In the .54
my standard hunting load is 80grs of FFF Goex...In the .40, I've settled on 25grs of FFF Goex for my small game hunting load...I've taken
at least 30 deer with the .54 and actually use this more than my .243 or my Knight Disc, which hasn't been loaded in 3 seasons...
