Like the rifle, BUT.......

Date:April 7, 2011

I like the rifle's feel and looks but there were some issues. The wedges would not go in. I read the manual etc but still there was more interference than there should have been. I spoke with the factory and and returned it to them, When I got it back the wedges went in but still not as I would have liked. Talking with the guy that did the work I get the impression that this happens rather often.
The other issue I had was the adjustable rear sight.
I could not turn the screw to adjust the sight. A long story short, when assembled the screw was turned all the way in causing a thread to stick out below the bottom of the sight, When the sight was put in ,it shaved metal off the barrel causing the metal sliver to get stuck between the threads of the screw which in turn prevented me from turning the screw.
The gun comes with two sights. When I took out the broken sight and tried to put in the othere sight that comes with this rifle it fell out. Apperently this is a know problem by Lyman. Considering what I paid for this gun I wasn't expecting these type of issues.
Other than that I like the gun and so far it appears to be a good shooter.

Great Plains Muzzleloader Rifle

I have 3 Blackpowder rifles and this rifle is by far the best. I put 6 shots in a 3'' bullseye at 50 yards. Extremley accurate and a real pleasure to shoot.

Great Gun

This has been the best black powder rifle I have ever owned. I wish they were all like this one. The accuracy, the feel, everything about it has been superior. If I ever wear it out, I will definitely buy another one.

Date:October 20, 2009

First shot was at 50 yds off the bench. 2" low and 1" to the left. After adjusting the sights every shot in a 6" circle. I"ll be taking it hunting in Pa.'s October muzzleloading season I have no doubt it will to its job.
