Very good. I bet that original Sharps has a very shallow groove. That works good with paper patching.

You will get this all ironed out when you shoot it.

right Kurt. very shallow groves, and the latest is 1 1//2 inch groups at 50 yards. time to go to 100
I cleaned up the bore with a careful wipe of valve grinding compound on a cloth, wet, and then full length draws with jewelers rouge, again wet.
the cleaning patch slides down the bore .

and the groups cut in half.....
