Re: Husqvarna Mod 4 RB 20 ga

Thanks for the replies & suggestions. Will try to post some photos of the full rifle at some stage. I plan to use this rifle for deer - Fallow & Reds which we have in the local region.

Daryl - I'll have a go at increasing the powder charge. Have just got hold of a .635 RB so will try that bare and with a cloth patch. Should I lube the patch? The front sight is way too low already to consider using something shorter.

Lancaster - I can confirm that it is chambered for the 40mm case. One of the first things I did was make a wax chamber cast. There is no freebore ahead of the chamber, just an abrupt step and the rifling begins. It is very similar to one of your chamber casts shown on an earlier post (lot's of great information, thanks). In your experience with the various 40/20 loadings have you ever come across any details on the powder charge used with either the round ball or the conical loadings?
Thanks
Spud
