LESSON #2

1988rrc

Now when I see one I 'might' be interested in at my favorite local shop, I ask them to set it aside and they are willing to put it in a back room and give me a few days to think about it.SHASTA .........LESSON #1 I tried my best to tell the gentleman how many 'issues' that rifle had and told him ab...

I was at the local gun store and noticed a 1873 saddle ring carbine on the shelf for $450.00; got it down for an inspection and find that it is rough shape, mainly rust (no pitting), a few missing screws (no big deal) and a stuck firing pin. It was well worth the money to me just to clean it up and ...

1988rrc

Further research on the .45-70 carbide dies, I find they are not available for this cartridge because it is not a straight walled. Have to use lube.

1988rrc

I have also located several used .47-70 die sets. How do you tell if they are the type you can use without case lube (carbide??)?

However, looking at the video, you mean the Lee loader...not the handpress. Sorry...no experience there.

No I ment the hand press g did not know what it was called ), found one for $25.00.

1988rrc

Wohhhh now that's hand loading........
the lee hand loader I

Was thinking about was a big red plyer looking device. It is threaded to hold a die similar to the bench loader.

1988rrc

Has anyone had experience with a Lee hand loader especially for .45-70? Easy to use? Best to use the bench loader?

i heard that on the earlier guns, the screws are not interchangable (or available) with the new ones; how do i tell the age of the gun by looking at it?

1988rrc

While at the local gun store this morning I saw a Navy Arms 'Yellow Boy' SRC in .44-40. Very good condition over all except it had 3 screw heads buggered up (tang screw, barrel band screw, dont remember the other place) and a small ding in the wood butt stock. The serial number was located on the ri...

its in great shape, with no safety button on top of the receiver, sold by navy arms.
