Yes - It's a "rifle" not a musket. The description specifies "1 in 66" twist"

Most of these stocks are made of Walnut, and it is a very hard wood. It will brake easy in small area where the wood is thin, do to the in-letting where the lock or trigger will be fitted.

I don't think any of the Traditions Barrels are heat treated. Or proof tested for that matter.. Google it. You'll be surprised at the lack of quality..

A: 
Yes it is but sanding the stock is to finish it is wrong. Knock it down with 4 0000 steal wool first. wipe it down and blow of the steal wool with a air hose. Just put on a coat of Tung oil. Shake it up real good before use...(Don't shake varnish if you decide to use it. It has to be stirred.)

Apply one coat, let it dry and use four 0000 steel wool to knock it down. Keep doing this until it has the finish you like. I don't get too carried away if it;s for hunting.

Given that this is a 50 cal. - it's not a squirrel gun.

Seriously, loaded properly, you could take game up through deer easily with this rifle. As with any firearm it is mostly about accuracy, practice and effective range.

You would need to check with the group holding the re-enactment. Most groups have their own standards for accuracy. Different guns were used in different battles and regions due to time of the battle, availability, and local preferences.
