I'll have to add pics later, but it is a White Super 91 .504 stainless with a 3x9 scope. I plan to use it on at least 1 deer either in muzzle loader season or general gun.

she is a true heart breaker(I mean heart buster)

she is deadly accurate out to 150+ yards....

this set up will shoot as good if not better than most centerfire setups... a true sub moa gun

Nothing spectacular. Sons setup is a CVA Bobcat and a Pietta 1858 Remmy clone, mines a Traditions Deerhunter flintlock and a Ruger Old Army.

Ok here's my arsenal. CVA Wolf 50 cal. inline, CVA Hawken 50 cal.,
Mowrey Ethan Allen 45 cal., Traditions Kentucky Long Rifle kit gun 45 cal. and Traditions Confederate Navy 44 cal. pistol.
I may put a scope on the Wolf when I get rich again.
I will probably be using one of the 50 cal. guns.

Thanky thanky, if'n I aint mistaken it was you sold me that remmy clone sir. I been lookin at Ruger Old Army's ever since. Bought the one and bid on a couple more and if'n I could convince the wife it was a good idea I'd already have five or six of em. Them things done 'preciated since I got mine.

I am lookin to find some bullets to possibly true hunting with it. I'm lookin for a 180 to 225 grain flat pointed round nose in .454.
