Need Alittle Help Finding a Part

[Otter]

Charlie,

I think you are referencing George Petersen at Treebone Carving.  http://www.treebonecarving.com  He relocated from Idaho to New Mexico a few years back. I used wood from him for my RB project about 10 years ago. Good wood, reasonable price.

  Otter, Charlie,,,,, there's another place that sells semi-done Rolling Block stocks, other then Treebone, and he's a tad cheaper and his wood looks just as good;

Yep that was the guy and I don't blame him a bit for relocating to a warmer climate!
Pretonica is a great source too.

I may get the bug to build one up some day. I'd also like to do a Gemmer Sharps someday too.

I did look at my Remington Rolling Block Rifles and Pistols book and saw that they offered a 45-100 in the no.1 Sporting rifle. Noting bigger in the oldtime adds in the book. but I just bet you could pay extra for any cartridge you wanted just like paying extra for longer bbls. I could be all wet., but I have fallen in the Creek (Halfway Creek) before.

According to Barnes, the Remington 45-100 is a bottle necked case 2 5/8" long.
