	I never said it did, I probably should have included an FWIW in my reply. Thanks for your reply. FWIW ?

	This is my latest match rifle. Started out a 40-90 SS now is 45-90. The barrel was cut off at 26 inches. Easy to manage in a pickup cab. The bore is in similar condition to the rest of the rifle. I re-crowned the muzzle and stuck sights on it. Last Saturday it put four out of five shots on a pig swinger. My spotter was not taking the excersize seriously. Looking down the bore first thought would be to scrap the barrel. Has a set trigger however the set screw is broken off. Was to cold and blustery to shoot a match with it this month. Maybe it's a go in March. Bore is now eight groove with narrow lands, 18 inch twist. I used Hoppes bore solvent and steel wool on a tight patch to remove the rust.
