No Gbro we have never shot it. The bore looks good. This rifle has not been fired much at all during its long life. As far as I know, my dad is has never fired it in his lifetime.

Yes, It was handed down in the family for generations, but we dont know who originally owned it or where it came from. It was given to my dad by my grandfather.

Dad is working with the Cody Firearms Museum in order to obtain a letter about the origin of this rifle.
