Pics for Charlie cleavland
 

Couldn't find your email so I will post a couple of pic's here. Some of the other members might enjoy these. Just finnished building this yesterday. It is a smokeless muzzleloader. It will shoot a 45cal 275gr bullet at 3000 fps. Here is the pics.

WOW!!

That thing should knock down anything on this or any other continent!!






.

It looks like a Remington Bolt but the nut looks like a Savage front end. What is it? Details please. I shoot the Savage 10 MLII (smokless), and would not trade it for the world, well maybe for one of these.

It probably kill anything on the planet. Jerry it's a hybrid . So you are correct on both counts.

Is the .45 bullet in a sabot?

45 cal bullet is bore diameter. No sabot.

Great looking gun ! what ignition system are you using ?

It is a Hankins.

I'll let you know if I book at T Rex hunt somewhere.....

I was totally satisfied with the Savage ML-II and then it developed a blow by issue . Savage rebarreled it returned it and it shot great if loaded and shot right away . Sent it back again and they eventually sent me a brand new one . Never fired the new one kept it six months and sold it on GB for a tidy $500 profit . About eight months ago I got a Remington 700 Ultimate ML and like it just fine . Shot 42 grains of VV N-110 with a 250 saboted bullet in the Savage for 2150 FPS in the Remington I use 64.5 grains H4198 and a saboted 250 for 2150 FPS as well . Both were or are capable of 3 shot one hole groups at 100 yards .
