May I suggest that you return the ramrod to its place in the stock each time you fire at a target.  It is my experience that not having the rod in the rifle can affect the point of impact of the ball.  The old adage of:  everything the same, shot to shot.

[reddogge]

I have a ramrod story about that. I was shooting a .45 rifle with a longer barrel and a newly built .36 rifle. I forgot to replace the .45 ramrod when finished shooting and when I loaded the .36 grabbed the .45 ramrod and got it jammed part of the way down the barrel. I had to stop shooting since the .36 rod wasn't long enough to push the ball all the way down the .45 barrel. Lesson learned.

just reading this thread again. 

Reddogge, that story made me chuckle, and surely sounds like something I would do.  But I would probably need help from my shooting buddy to get the full effect... you know, something about two monkeys and a football?

Have to remember to keep 45's and 32's separated as much as possible.

Wayne, are the lands and grooves "filed out" to produce an easy loading crown.
Nice rifle. BTW.

Yes! Jud does this on all of his rifles. It looks great too. It’s a shooter! I’ve got to bang the rear sight a little. It’s shooting 1/4” to the left.

[Daryl]

That is a nce muzzle treatment as it does pretty much exactly the same thing as my method, producing a rounded entrance into the bore for the ball and patch.
Appears as if it wants to shoot.

Kibler SMR .36 in Cherry. About 40 rounds today. She is squirrel ready.

[Martin S.]

I've got a cherry one I need to finish.

I plan to let the stock age naturally

What kind of topcoat did you use?

It looks very nice.  Well done.
