Looks great!

I had a '73 in .32WCF and got so frustrated with it I sold it off. Probably should have spent some time
and money having it relined!

Can't wait to hear how it shoots!

Wow! That is an extremely nice lining job. I bet it will be a good shooter. Looking forward to a range report on that one. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Glad she has a good home. I'm a one lever guy now. Mod71alaska parted with a gem and I got it yesterday. That's why I'm back on forum. Perked me right out of my funk! Words can't describe how thrilled I am with this lever.

I ruined an old 73 32/20 trying to have it relined. Wish I had known about this outfit then. Today the rifle would be worth $3,000. Oh well.

Will they reline an original 50/70 Sharps rifle too?

Nice! That rifle will be a tack driver at 100 yards with the right loads and bullet diameter.

Casastahle,
Sounds like you need a "sick day" that only a trip to range will cure. Have a Redman's relined 92 in 32-20 that is a fabulous shooter, hope your 38-40 is too.
