    Caliber for a dedicated target rifle

    Is there a consensus concerning the ideal caliber for round ball target shooting, say primarily out to 50 yds? This would assume excellent barrels, etc.

    Question concerning TVM different grades of Maple

    I'm considering ordering a TVM iron Pennsylvania rifle, percussion, with browned furniture.

    What is this rifle worth?

    This is a 36 caliber rifle - the only marking is on the lock built by Josh Golcher. The lock will not cock, I haven't removed it from the stock to examine what it looks like. The bore is badly rusted. I would not shoot this rifle. The exterior looks pretty good. From what research I've done...
