Finished the .58cal Barrel
 
Well 4 days ago i took my nephew back to his moms and before i left i put on the final coat of LMF and it sat there for 4 days until today. I took a rag soaked in Hot water and wiped it down smooth to remove the rough scale and dried it and applied the first coat of Boiled linseed oil onto the barrel and then wiped it down again. 2 or 3 more coats of linseed oil should do it.








Going to order the underlugs and the under rib with ramrod thimbles pretty soon. Also the wedge pins.

that looks real good... that's going to be a sharp looking rifle.

That's a nice looking gun. makes me want to break out my .58 and shoot her.My shoulder hurts thinking about the last range session with it. Less powder and smaller bullet;That's my motto for my .58 now. Good luck with it.

Thanks guys. I borrowed some parts of the .54 barrel so i could do a mock up. I mounted the .58cal barrel onto the .54cal stock.

thanks bronko. She shoots 10 times as better as it looks. Both are getting new sights later on this year. Going with the exactly same sights that i used on coreys hawken. Those babies were sharp and sight picture was clean and clear.
