Dave that rifle was a custom build I did in the late 80's. It was built in the Tennessee poor boy style. The stock is wild cherry. The barrel was a 7/8" CVA .45 cal that was thinned down to 13/16" to reduce weight. The lock was an Ashmore warranted from TVA Arms and was completely reworked for smooth function. The trigger is a single set and I don't remember the maker. It is all iron mounted in poor boy style. The only glitzy thing on it is a German silver oval plate with my initials engraved . That is in the center of the cheek piece. It shoots best with a .440 ball with a .015" patch and 60 grains of FFFg. It was the first custom muzzle loader I built.
