T/C RENEGADE. TO BUY OR NOT TO BUY. THIS IS THE QUESTION....

[gregdaws]

T/C renegade in .54 $220 delivered to the door taxes paid. Very clean and obviously cared for. Minor rust in the bore definitely but not bad (says the gun smith). What do you think? I think it's worth taking a chance. What do those more knowledgeable than I think? your opinions would be appreciated....

I would buy it. A stock and lock sold on here for more than that with no barrel

 

[phalanx]

If you don't. Let me in on the deal and I'll buy it!

Heck of a price! You can get the rust out, but is there any pitting, that won't come out. Does it have a QLA, false muzzle? Like said the stock/lock is worth the price.

I'd love a 54 Renegade to go along with my 50 Renegade. Buy it!!!

In addition, I have this same rifle, mine is older bought in 1993 pre QLA, killed my first muzzleloader deer with it.
The 1:48 twist is very accurate with a patched .530 round ball and 60 gr of 2fg powder.

For that price the bore does not matter ,get it rebored/or relined with the twist /cal of your choice /Ed

What are you waiting for????

 

[deermanok]

Buy it now!

 

[Deersknot]

Yep, no worries. Buy it, then if there is too much pitting, send it to Bobby Hoyt to get lined, or bored out to .58. You can't loose at that price.

Buy it Greg. Its not even a question. Great price for a great gun.

 

[rusticbob]

Buy it! You won't regret it. I have a .54 Renegade, and its a real deer slayer.

Okay. Advice taken. Rifle purchased. I have been looking for a while and figured I'd buy it but I wanted opinions from folks who shoot them. I have never shot patch & ball but I'm really looking forward to it. I think I bagged myself a bargain today. Thanks for your help guys.

 

[edmehlig]

A Bargain is an understatement!

You'll love it, best of luck with the new rig.

Agree 100%.

I did replace the wood ramrod on my .54 Renegade with a synthetic rod. It was showing wear so safety issue.

I recently picked up a Renegade Kit gun for 200. Any Hawken or Renegade in good condition and under 300 in my opinion is a pretty good deal. While I paid 200 for my gun the sights were almost 3x higher price than the gun.
