rice barrel

Just received my rice barrel, almost fried my rods and cones holding the bore to the lamp light. Excellent job, and ahead of schedule. Thank you Erik for all the work you put into this project.

I ordered a Rice barrel while at Friendship because they were introducing their new 46" model. They are based on the "B" and "C" weight breeches and I picked a C weight in .54 caliber. Had to order it only because I wanted round bottom rifling -- the "square bottom" rifling was in stock. I'll save shipping by picking it up at the CLA show. :)

Great looking barrels!
