    Barrel date code BB, which I believe makes it a 1992 proof date.

    Includes vernier tang sight and wind gauge front sight, plus barrel mounted sights with modifications, a
    nylon false muzzle for cleaning and loading and a hard case.

    This is the equivalent of a 45-90 muzzleloader. I have used it to shoot at ram silhouettes at 500 meters with
    respectable success. My best groups were shot with 85 grains of Swiss 1 1/2, a Lyman 457122 bullet sized to
    .451 and a poly wad. This rifle is undefeated in long range competitions (3 for 3) in the Northwest Territory of
    the N-SSA. Seems they don't hold matches like that anymore, so this is up for sale.

    $850 or best offer. For an additional $50, I will include a custom made Oak shooting box I built to hold all of the powder, wads, etc.
    (This doesn't include those accessories, just the box. Pictures available on request.)

    Bob, I've been trying to reply to your PM to me. About four are floating in outer space.

    I'll be around tomorrow. Talk to you then I hope. I'll take the Volunteer and case.
