I've got a 2 bore(ish) barrel that I'm having a breech plug made for this week - - as soon as I get all of the details worked out. I'm debating on what barrel length I should use. I have 42 inches now, but was thinking of cutting it somewhere in the neighborhood 36-38 inches. I've read others that were 26 inches and 36 inches. I sure don't want to cut it and wish it were longer.... What is a good length for this barrel? The bore is actually 1.18 inches (closer to 3 bore I think), but it's as close as I can get to "Baby". I'm planning on starting out shooting balls (and not from the shoulder, at least not at first). I have a friend that makes choke tubes for shotguns that says he can make a mold for conical bullets fairly easily. Hopefully I can come up with a fairly accurate load that can be shoulder fired. Of course mine will be a muzzleloader... Thank ya'll for your insight. NitroSteel |
