Modern Inline - Choose an Action Type
We are talking Inline Muzzloaders only. They will all be able to shoot BH209 right out of the box. The rifle would incorporate the modern mechanics of the time.
The 50cals would have a 1/24 twist to satisfy the full bore bullets and sabots alike. The 45'S would have a 1/20 twist, here again good for full bore bullets and sabots. I should also mention these are hunting rifles. 1-A bolt action 2-A break open 3-A falling block similar to the T/C Omega |
Break open.
|
I went with break-open.
|
I go with the bolt action. Like my knights but I do have one custom built breakaction with a Ed Rayl barrel.
|
Break open of those three choices.. I like my plunger Whites just as much!!
|
Bolt, then drop action, then break action for me.
|
I just have experience with my TC PH and it has served me extremely well. Shoots just as good, if not better than, a lot of my centerfire rifles. On a good day when I am feeling my oats (and them days come fewer and fewer at my age) I can put 5 in under an inch at 150. Can't really ask any better of a MLer than that! So yep, I picked break action. But I tell ya what, I sure would like to lay hands on a 1:24 twist .50cal barrel just for some giggles! I think that would open up a lot of doors for some better BC bullet options.

Break-action - then fall-action - then bolt-action.
|
Break action for me.
Drop action is awkward for me. Bolts that I have had did not have locking lugs so no added safety factor just a lot of wasted space and weight. |
I really like the Optima action break open.
|
i vote for break opens love my t/c s especially the triumphs & bone collectors & even the impacts & then i would go with a thumbhole omega
|
I like the break open action. Seems at least for me the easiest to prime, disassemble and clean. But that's my opinion. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
|
The easier cleaning part I could care less about. It's the ease of priming that tops things for me. They are all easy to clean in my book. Some may take an extra minute than the other but again, they are all easily cleaned. I just don't want something that I have to carry a priming tool around just to load the dang thing.
|
Rather a bolt. More accurate at long range.

Those would be a falling block or drop action, not a break action.

Not. Triumphs and Impacts are break open rifles. Omega and KRB7 are drop/falling/rolling block rifles.

Are brain farts smelly?
|
Not if you keep your fingers in your ears.
