New to the forum. Ordered the Tom Horn last week.( Ugly hollywood tang sight included. . . hehe) Should have it in a couple weeks. I really should not have watched the movie, it was only $7 to buy on Amazon, ended up costing me $2000+ .I really hope it does not turn out to be a hunk of junk problem child. Can't find 45-60 dies anywhere with the exception of Redding at $130 seems someone posted some negative comments regarding these dies somewhere? Ordered Lee 45-70 dies and factory crimp die. Can probably make this work? Without machining the lee dies down? any thoughts? Found a large Quantity of Starline 45-70 brass on Gunbroker. Been researching lots of load data. Some comments about using fillers and "ringing" the chamber scared me a little bit. Have IMR 4198 on hand and ordered some AA5744. Don't cast so got some Bear Creek 305 gr. coated bullets, these look like they should work great for the 45-60 caliber. The forum has been a great help in figuring things out, Will post some pics when I get it and follow up with Impressions and load results .Thanks to all for all the helpful information.
