I dare ask, how is the bore? BTW, very nice job.

The bore shows wear but is in good condition. It has a couple of minor pits but the rifling is strong and should shoot OK. I'll find out how well tomorrow.

There are still a number of flecks of paint embedded in deep pores & dents in the wood. I used a dental pick to gently lift off as much as I could.
