I have a Baikal MP221, also knows as the "poor man's double"...... 
I bought it for a big bear hunt and general cool factor, but now have my eyes and wallet on other things so was going to list it. The issue is how? For the average buyer, I'm guessing that there is a bit of concern over proper barrel regulation and load choice so there are two options as I see it:
Option 1
Leave it sighted in for Federal Fusion 300gr (available everywhere) with the stock trigger (9lbs of gravel
) and post two separate ads in the EE
"Baikal MP221 .45-70 for $$$ "
+
".45-70 dies , assorted bullets for $$"
Option 2
"Baikal MP221 .45-70, custom triggers, scope mount , sighted & regulated @ 75yd for 400gr Barnes SSP, load X, powder, bullets & dies for $$$$"
I have the dies, bullets, etc. and the trigger job is a minor gunsmith effort. Option 2 is really about my time, which as fun as hearing that .45 cal go BOOM, is worth something!
Thoughts?
