Probably explains why the front part of the rear one is broke . I plan to send the barrels to someone before I ever attempt to shoot it . I contacted Bachelders on their Facebook page to see if they work on sxs muzzleloader barrels also . I've read some people say have a gunsmith remove the breech plugs to clean out the gunk , I've also read more people say never remove the breech plugs on a gun this old . Speaking of the key ways , the more expensive 8 ga muzzleloader don't seem to have them . Maybe they just have a bigger longer single lug .
