Upstate NY, it can be waiting at my door when I get home from work.

 

[Henry2357]

I see a Franks in Gloversville?

 

[mhseeley]

That's the one. He has a Gloversville mailing address

 

[Henry2357]

After the holidays, will check it out.

 

[timothy prouty]

YES it's a cool place to go.

I bought both of my Renegades, Both in .54 a flinter and a percussion from ads on Gunbroker. One piece of advice to offer is to change that nipple to one that uses a musket cap. :wink:

 

[hrchotaw]

Why,pray tell? Never have a problem with #11's :hmm:

 

[azmntman]

:metoo: have had a TON more troubles with musket caps myself.

 

[Henry2357]

Well, my 54 trade rifle came in today and unfortunately I have to wait to the weekend to set it up and check it out..... :cursing: next 2 days work both my jobs.

I shoot a Lyman GP in a .54 caliber and enjoy shooting it. I wouldn't worry about the 1:60 twist it stabilizes the PRB real well. I personally shoot 80 grains of Goex ff and .530 PRB with mink oil lube and have a 2 inch minus group at 50 yards.
