I finally decided.
 
A while back I had talked about getting a new barrel from Green Mountain but I couldn't decide on a .32 caliber, .54 caliber or a .58 caliber barrel. Well it turns out I didn't get a Green Mountain barrel after all. And since I already have enough rifles to hunt deer with, I went with a squirrel rifle. It just came via UPS today. It's a .32 caliber Traditions Deerhunter. I like the adjustable trigger on my .54 caliber Deerhunter a lot, and these rifles are drilled and tapped for a scope so it was an easy decision after all.

Those are neat little guns Pluckit. It sure won't wear you down carrying for a long hunt. We'll be looking for your first range report.

How much powder does a .32 take? Should be really cheap to shoot. Not much lead in the balls either.

I see they're around $250.

I've been runnin' 25gr. of Pyro "P" through my .32 Firehawk with a .015 patch and .310 ball and she's a shootin lil' snot! Don't know what the twist is on the Traditions but mine is 1:48 according to T/C's chart.

I ordered it last Wednesday and it came today. Five days, not too bad. And there was no shipping cost! Now that was hard to believe.
