Beck barrel that was a 54 caliper smoothbore that only weighed 3.1 pounds. It was an octogon to round profile that was .940 at the breech and 47" long. He did a great job.

good when they are stretched out...........Don

You just missed a great one that Charles Burton just sold here on ALR. It was a 38" 16 bore oct to round. I saw it at the CLA show and it was a really well made barrel and ideal for a hunting gun.
