What do you do with an empty Renegade stock?
Why you buy a barrel, of course.
So I pulled the trigger (actually, I pulled the credit card) this afternoon on a spanking new .58 caliber 1:70 twist GM barrel for the Virtuous Cousin. That sucker cost $190 + $15 shipping from Pecatonica River Long Rifle Supply. It was the last one they had. I sure hated paying retail - but GM shows no sign of going back into production of fifty-eights and they're getting pretty scarce. Now I can rest at ease. My Renegade obsession is sated with a nice balanced set of four - the scoped Sinful Sisters (.45 caliber 1:30" twist; .50 caliber 1:28" twist; .54 caliber 1:70" twist) and the soon to arrive .58 caliber 1:70" twist (which will remain unscoped and virtuous). I think I have enough. I'll never catch up with Cayugad, Sabotloader, and Bronko anyway. |
it is only money enjoy the new barrel
I was lucky to land my 54 flinter barel 1 in 66 twist 150.00 shipped but they are few and far to be found for that price and N.O.S. to boot:popcorn: |
You will really like that .58 caliber. Mine shoots real good.
|
You still have not caught up with me let alone Dave. Con grats on the new barrel.

We have to enjoy what we have and just be Jealous of those with more.LOL

Mine shoots best with 110 grains of 2f black powder, a .018 pillow tick patch, and a Speer .570 roundball. I dare a whitetail to step in front of that load.

I'll have to pick up some 570s to try both sizes. I'm looking forward to playing with it, but won't get to shoot it for a couple of weeks. The barrel should be here Monday, but we're leaving Wednesday to visit my sister-in-law in Georgia for a week or so. While the girls are chatting I'll be roving the pawn shops. |
Try them .575 the .570 fit nice but not real tight. You might have a good ball there.
