Thread: breathing new life into a beautiful old girl

You will have to excuse my poor internet access, I will try to keep this build up to date as best as I can




I picked up this old bonehill snider, it was in good shootable condition, but unfortunately, in its past the barrels muzzle was damaged and accuracy was poor.

I ordered a green mountain barrel, for a muzzle loader with the intention of cutting out the breech plug and then rebarreling the snider with it.





On the lathe
Cutting the threads






Profiling the barrel down to size




I ordered a bit of wood to replace the original stock.







Updates as I am able.
