OP Mike Harrell Sidelock Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 3,733 Likes: 211 Alaska	At auction today I bought a rifle that I have searched for for awhile. It has 4 things going for it and one against. 1. My favorite BPE caliber a .500BPE #2. 2. It's a Westley. 3. It's hammerless. 4. It sports damascus barrels. The bad. Looks like it's been restocked. Doesn't look terrible but not great either.

Will you be shooting it with black powder, or a smokeless for black substitute load? What bullet would be appropriate for the Damascus barrels? Voting for anti-gun Democrats is dumber than giving treats to a dog that shits on a Persian Rug
