Lyman Great Plains Hunter ??

[Bayouman]

Anyone know anything about the Lyman Great Plains Hunter 50 cal. (Flintlock) 1-32 twist bbl model??

Does it come with decent hunting sights and what does the 1-32 bbl shoot well? Saw Lyman makes the No. 16 and 37 (Rear & Front)Hunting Sights and wonder if they fit the GPR's?

Never owned a Lyman so any input on Lyman's appreciated.

I'm not sure about the sights you mentioned but the hunter model is the same as the standard round ball twist gun. The only difference between the two guns is the rifling twist.

Anything which would fit to the round ball model would fit the hunter model. The hunter model was made for conical bullets rather than round balls, for the ones who prefer to shot a conical.
