    Shooting way left?

    One thing I would check is the tang parallel with the top of the barrel? I have had tangs that weren’t. Second thing to check is the barrel straight? You can use a straight edge to check that.

    Tru oil time question

    I cut my Tru Oil with mineral spirits which allows it to soak in better. I rub it out so it’s very thin and apply up to five coats before I’m finished. My drying time before shooting is 3 days but I live in a very dry climate.

    Gray Steel

    Question regarding inletting

    I’ve got one that I built that I would sell for half that price with curly maple, wooden patch box, and raised carving. His price seems very high to me.
