My new GP Greener Bore Gun

As promised, I have taken a couple of photos of my new toy for anyone interested in having a look.
It's very plain and simple, but it didn't cost the earth and its fun to shoot, what more could you want?
It is based on a GP Greener action with a 27" Pac-Nor barrel, 1~20" twist and 7 lands and grooves. It has an NECG rear sight and a Williams "shorty" ramp front sight. And a most welcome red Decelerator recoil pad.
It weighs 8lb 15 ozs empty. I had my gunsmith bead blast blue it to cut down on glare, and also to preserve the light Greener stampings on the action sides.
Wood is still the original wood, might get the checkering re-cut one day to make it look a bit better.
Going to the range tomorrow to see what happens, I have some Paradox style projectiles to try, they weigh 680 grains with a Hollow point and I also have some .732" diameter round balls, they weigh 570 grains.

Regards,
David.
