Cross threading is better than two lock washers.
Way to go!
Can you post a picture of the whole gun? That thing is a beauty!

I'm back now. Not my best shot on a deer but the .54 cal ball did the trick. She ran a long way due to my low shot but left me a good trail to follow so I knew I'd find her eventually. I didn't have my bag with me or I'd have put it down there too.
The horn is nothing special, I ordered it from Crazy Crow I think.
The horn strap was ordered from a weaver that I found on FB who does traditional weavings specializing I think in horn, bag straps and such.
The rifle was a TVM kit, 36" barrel, .54cal Late Lancaster
Thanks everyone for the comments and likes. I'm pretty pumped still.

Leopard dog,
Congrats! Your build thread was interesting and good to appreciate the effort and love that goes into one of those beautiful rifles. Keep us posted when you bag a buck with it!

I'm going to hunt with it next weekend too. I've decided that unless I'm sitting on a food plot or clear cut, I'm going to carry my flinter. It needs a name and maybe if I carry it enough, I'll think of one.
