I'm thinking of getting a barrel for the numrich h&a underhammer I got, it wears a 15ga smoothbore round barrel at the moment. I'd like a rifled barrel for hunting, I'm thinking a 45 will be nice. Really any bigger and I think the recoil my crack the thin wrist. But the bigger bore would take some weight off the gun, it's a joy to carry being so lite.
I think I and fit up to a 1" barrel on this but the smaller the better I'd think. On length I'm not sure either , these gun are known to shoot well so would the longer barrel longer sight radius help.
I have to make the breach plug, I should be able to get threaded bolt and cut it down on the lathe to fit in the action. I would like to upgrade how's the barrels held in, it's got the wedge now. I thing a threaded bolt would be the easiest way.
One other thing any tips on drilling the hole for the nipple.
