    Lyman trade rifle sights

    I'm looking to upgrade sights on my Lyman trade rifle. I do not like the look of the Tang peep sight for the Lyman. My question is will the Williams bullseye sight work on a Lyman being the rear sight is half way down the barrel?

I will only be shooting 50 cal round balls and 320 reals into it. Would u think 24 inch deep would be ok just to lighten it...

    rubber mulch bullet trap?

    This is a good idea like I said in the last post I do have ar500 to do this but I also do have some different place I also shoot at so lighter would be better. But for a stationary target I will be doing this. Sand would work the best and using a rubber liner to hold the sand seems to work...

    rubber mulch bullet trap?

    I agree with was deflection plate I was thinking the same thing I do have some ar500 for that. From what I seen is a wood box with wood baffles inside to divide to make it easier to find the lead. Also it was said that around 18 inches would stop high powered rifle rounds and shaking the box...

    help with trade rifle or deerstalker

    yes it will be more traditional i hate the snythetic stock on my tc. being that my firestorm was not taken care of by the orginal owner the barrel is pitted so it will be an upgrade from the condition my gun is in. if it was a tc hawkens or something decent i would have the barrel bored to a .54.
