32 Cal.
Good afternoon. Though this is my first post, I have been reading this board for a good while now. I own a percussion GPR in .54 cal. and enjoy the heck out of shooting it. I have come across a couple of rifles at a local pawn shop here in town. One of them is a T/C Renegade in .54 and an A. Uberti "Jedediah Smith" rifle marked with .54 cal. The Uberti is apparently a limited production run in that it is marked "9XX out of 1000" (I can't recall the actual number). The rifle is in okay shape...it looks as if it has been sitting awhile. With a little TLC I think it will look pretty nice. It looks as if the muzzle has been shortend by about an inch and a half or so according to the ramrod sticking out past the barrel and the fact that the muzzle has no rounded edges (they are squared off, if that makes any since). The rifle shoulders very nice and feels well balanced. The price tag showed $365, but the guy at the counter said he could do much better than that. Would it be worth my time, effort, and money to buy it or should I run from it. A quick google search didn't do much good. All that I could find was an ancient forum from 1997 saying that the bore was actually undersized at ~.530. Any help that ya'll could give me is greatly appreciated.
Thanks- Craig :hatsoff:
