BROW / Re: Revolvers with Buffalo rifles
« Last post by Mogorilla on Today at 06:04:00 PM »I shoot a trapdoor rifle. I was a part time scout/teamster for the army and “found” it as i moved on to being a buffalo hunter. Coins saved is coin to be drank. So, i carry a converted Remington with a couple of cap and ball cylinders when cartridges are scarce.

The Powder Room - CAS reloading / Re: Closest Substitute for Unique
« Last post by Sedalia Dave on Today at 05:39:33 PM »Take a look at the data on this website.

Pay close attention to the SD. Loads with high SD indicate erratic ignition.
YMMV

The Accurate Mold that 'Tom' made for me was a custom I asked for. It is now of course a catalog item. The number is....45-240E and I set the OAL to 1.585-1.590" with this bullet.
I have not got to shoot my carbine yet with this bullet but I did load 7 dummy rounds with this bullet. I ran those 7 rds. thru the carbine 5 times. I ran them thru working the action quickly, I ran them thru working the action less vigorously, I ran them thru hesitating at the bottom of the lever stroke and at the top to start a new cycle, I also ran them through working the action slowly. The 5th run thru I had one rd. that I had to just barely jiggle the lever and it fed. All other rds. on each run through fed as slick and smooth as my 1860 Uberti Henry By that run thru the bullet noses had been beat up quite a bit. I was so pleased with it that I had a big grin! Now........as long as it feeds that well with live firing I will be one happy camper !

Yes, it is beautiful for sure. I had reservations about sending it back for repairs as to not getting the same carbine or wood back.
Thank you........Macon
