Lyman Sharps Ideal Rifle 38-55

Crummy Shooter · June 20, 2016, 07:45 AM

Good Morning from Oregon,
I see several posts about the Lyman Sharps 38-55, but I don't see where anyone has slugged the barrel. So, Has anyone out there checked the barrel for groove diameter? There seems to be so many options for molds and sizing dies that I hesitate to buy casting tools until I know the measurements of the barrel I am casting for.
I won't have the gun for about a week, but would like to order casting supplies, in the mean time.
