I've been shooting an inline 50 cal for a couple of years and although the performance was great, I really wanted a more traditional gun. I had been eyeballing a .45 cal sidelock for the last couple of weeks and then today I came across a deal on a Thompson Center 50 cal that I couldn't pass up. Took a chance on it due to the fact that the bore looked real bad, but a little JB bore past and some elbow grease cleaned it up real nice. I can't wait to get out to the range and fire it up.
The barrel twist is not marked. Do any of you own one of these? and what deer load are you using ? I've got 295 gr powerbelts & 240 gr hornady xtb w/sabots but I will switch if something else works better.
Thanks,
