Tac, it is helical ( spiral rifling not straight )

Canute, there is a remnant of a old bayonet lug , ground down bottom of barrel, it’s brass .

Thanks all!

I believe it has what is called ratchet rifling. Very nice rifle, glad you are using it.

Shot the old girl yesterday again, of 6 shots at 50 yds 3 in the bull, one just out. The first shot was high, because I figured out I need to hold 6” low to bull at 50. The last shot was left a foot but up and down good, I’m blaming a moskito bite.

Load was 70 gr powder, two thin veggi wads, patched round ball.

Thanks again all
Paul
