Try this  www.bluegrouseblackpowder.webexone.com/login.asp?loc=&link=

The guy is south of Gig Harbor.  I think the base kit is still about $255.  Awesome guns!  Mine hase a cantilevered scope mount on the barrel with a peep mounted to that.  My wife's has the peep on the action but there are problems with lining it back up after cleaning.

Let me know if any questions.  Plus legal in non-inline states.  Design is from early 1800's.

700 ADL Rem 7mm mag, Camo synthetic stock and with a burris ballistic plex scope, I shoot 175gr Fusions. Love it, waited along time for it and will be my main rifle as long as live. Got 2 other 700's in 243 and 270. Will always own Rems.

CVA side by side 12 gauge 90 gr ff and same volume # 5 shot taken Turkey, ruffed and Blue grouse, chukars, Huns and Quail
12 ga. hand made flint, Siler lock, unknown barrel blank, taken about 7 turkeys. use 90 gr ff and equal volume shot. now working on load with 477 gr 0.69 round ball.

Problems seeing iron and peep site so will scope the New Englander and hunt modern season. I need the close range gun to be safe where I live.

I have taken 6 elk in 7 years, plus deer and antelope all round ball\ll and never lost a animal.

I've been hunting elk with my T/C Black Diamond XR for the last 8 years. I didn't change anything on the gun until this year. When I put a William's peep and a Limb Saver recoil pad on it. I wished I would of made these mod's earlier.  Also this last spring I picked up a Knight Bighorn for the wife. 
It's not the size of the trophy that make's it a trophy.

You may just be one person in this world. But you may be the world to just one person.
