One's ok but if you put two or more in a gun safe they breed like rats. Soon youll be pulling out all your guns to find the new ones, there hard to kill to.

Silver tips are the only ammo I had. 50 rounds no problems. double action is very hard but single is about 4lbs and crisp.

These people are comming from every direction. OSHA is considering a classification on loaded ammo, primers and powder that would jack way up the shipping rates. Thanks for the warning.

The m2 and the super m2 are the best hunting scopes I own love the lit cqb. And after buying a fue IORs like I did you can slap yourself in the face and wond...

They list the load at about 13500 cup. I'm sure its very slow burning powder and the usual suspect would be lots of shot to shot velocity inconsitancy. We need to find someone thats fired 20,000 of this in his 73.

I'll try to talk you into it. Uberti seems to be slowing down on some specific remakes and cals. Cimmeron does not list near as many examples of the 85 low wall any more. Dixie looks like there inventory is gettin real small. The market saturates fast on real specialty items. Better get one while yo...

Won't stabilize big bullets for bison ( if the twist is true to original). Might not handel the pressure either. Short range on elk ...OK.

Great gun, Uberti usually stays with the original twist (slow for a fifty) best with 300 to 350 gr bullets. Perfect for game hunting, not long range tho.

got to hold a new 76

It was a 45-60 rifle (28")... To heavy! Or maybe I'm to old. Anyone see the new alliant data on the 38-40 rifle, get this, 180gr at 1745fps or 200gr @ 1600fps all at 73 pressure. Shame we all wasted so much money on nefangled junk. We need to start a 73 forum for people that know what there doin.
