old t-bolt

Post by mw0248 » August 13th, 2014, 9:00 pm

found a .50 cal mzl loadr on railroad tracks; (old t-bolt)
old camo stock, stainless bbl, no. 11 nipple breech plug; was a p.o.s. wouldnt shoot;
old broken scope, no sights;
found out out it had a lifetime warranty;
called Knight; they sent me a 209 breech plug;
had williams sights put on it;
stripped stock down and painted black;
sanded and prepped stainless bbl; ( found out it is a green mountain barrel);
what a cinderella story;
this thing shoots 1/2" groups at 100 yds. with 50/40 shockwaves with 100 gr. 777 FFG

Any info on this thing would be great;
s/n is S004948;

The damn thing shoots better than my Optima!

it just weighs a ton;

Great gun I have two of them. 240 XTP and 80 to 90 grains works well

Replace the old nipple with a new! Musket cap nipple. But make sure you drill out the hole! too atleast double the size hole other wise they will have a lot of miss fires. once I drilled mine out NEVER HAVE HAD A MISFIRE! enjoy.
