Re-Barreling a Shilo

RE: Re-Barreling a Shilo
Steve,
Now that I know your background, I can see that you know what a good bore should look like. I am also in agreement with you that a barrel like yours should never find it’s way onto an expensive custom rifle. I’m often surprised at how defensive Shiloh owners get about this company.
When I was getting started my mentor encouraged me to use the 45-70 with PP. I took his advise and have done well. My load clocks at 1325 and shoots very well. My rifles are Shiloh and C Sharps. This PP load works equally well in both although the Shiloh is a bit on the light side for a LR rifle.
If I were starting over on a LR rifle solely for LR, it would be a Highwall in 45-90 with a 16 twist barrel.
