    What gun for early 1700's Virginia.

    More than likely a fowler, imported from England.

    Why .40 cal?

    A 3/8 ramrod will go down the barrel... I converted my .45 to a .40 when I built a .54..A .40 is great on squirrels when you drop down to 25-30grs of FFF powder and can be stoked up to say, 60grs FFF for larger game, deer inside 50 yards, coyotes, foxes, raccoons, etc... A .390 ball also bucks...

    Full Stock Barrel Removal

    I don't, no need to..A little rust perhaps on the bottom of the barrel? Who cares? It will outlast you..

    I ordered my Kibler Woodsrunner today!

    You will love that .54 on deer, mine likes 80grs FFF Goex with a .530 ball and .018 pillow ticking patch, lubed with SnoSeal...

    Remove brass sight before browning barrel.

    No, I browned mine with both in, center, file ends of brass sight flush with barrel and brown...You may need to make a slight adjustment when sighting in but, that's how I prefer to do it..

    Screw too long
