Yep nice rifle, .45? @Friwi

Haha na I just like 12 gauge, does the job good. I know some people shoot cows with the bloody things but wallabies are as big as Ill go with my .22 and thats when spotlighting on my mates farm, Id be no good in the scrub with it.

Did think about inserts or using a pistol caliber but just kept getting drawn back to the shoty, price and availablity being the major factors.

If I go with easy flow or solder will the temperature required harm the barrel? Its only a single shot I really dont think Ill be able to pump enough rounds through to get very warm.

I ported my old Bakail single barrel with black n decker and small drill bit. 5 holes about 3mm at 10 and 2 oclock spaced about 12mm apart. it reduced barrel lift a little and was just a bit different. think it helped with recoil a tad too maybe just because gun didn't lift into cheek. haven't don't the pump YET!!!!
