I have one. I won it in a pistol match in MI in 1985. SN 2xx. It has a very
heavy barrel. It used shotgun primers. To fire it, you pull the bolt back. When
you pull the trigger the entire bolt goes foreward. A pointed area on the front
of the bolt hits the primer. The safety was odd. With the bolt in the cocked
position you pull the bolt handle down where it locks in a slot.

It seems to be well made as the metal and stock are very nice.

I found an article which said was the 1st or one of the first in line muzzel
loading rifles.

There's a good photo, description and history at the Natl. Arms Museum.

Says they started in 1978.
