Contoured 12 ga Rifled Bbls
Trying to find a supply of these ... so far only come up with blanks ... apparently it's rather tricky to contour a thin wall bbl. I got some once from Numrich but they are out.

PACNOR told me the minimum dia they could supply wss 1.100 ... which is way too heavy on a 12 ga, need something like .825 at the muzzle.

don't you know any muzzleloading gunsmiths? Cut rifled barrels? Any twist and number of grooves and how deep and OD and all that jazz. Typically for less than half the big boys.

I have found an offshore source, and since I am a licenced importer, it will be relatively straightforward to bring these in. Anyone want some, while I am at it?

What can you say about the barrels? I have a single barrel jones underlever 12 bore that I've thought about converting to a bore rifle shooting round balls. Length, rate of twist, etc? Bob
