Black River Smith

I saw a posting of his over on the Winchester Collectors site.  The posting ending with him stating he was going to be out from Nov 1st '23 through Jan '24 on a hunting trip.  With sometime for the holidays.

I also miss his postings about those old rifles and loading tools of his.

Hope this helps you and hope he does return to this forum.

Good to hear from you also Slamfire.

I'm friends with him on Facebook and see his posts almost daily.  He takes periodically breaks from forums.

Hey O'l son i was getting kind of worried! Just glad you'r still with "US". ;D

I was wondering if you have (had) ever built a Rolling block ? I'v got it on my (weak) mind in 40-60 wcf (it is my favorite cal).
Took the 45-60 (thanks to you) out shooting the other day, my friend say's it is one of his favorite rifle's to shoot, 2"- 3" groups at 100yds off the bags. Anyway, good to hear from you.

   coffee's ready,  Hootmix.

Slamfire good to hear from you . No Sir I have not built a Rolling Block in 40-60 WCF. It has crossed my mind a few times , but never materialized . I did build a Rolling Block in 32 LC  that turned out to be a fun project . I re- barreled an old Swedish No. 1 action with a full octagon 1-1/8" x 35" and chambered it in 50 -70 Government . Was going to make into a plains rifle . After finishing the machine work I lost interest and have yet to stock it .  Have not been shooting any 76 guns for a while . Do a little shooting with an old heavy German muzzleloader target rifle every once in a while and that's about it . Good to hear from you my friend and hope yall are doing well ,,,DT

DT, if a #1RB is strong enough for a 50-70 it should be plenty strong enough to handle a 40-60. Been look'n and reading a lot on the RB's, just not interested in large bore's. But i shoot smokeless loads.

More rain today,,,,,,= more coffee, ta da!!! ;D
