Had a sit down talk with this thumper yesterday evening . Was picking on a steel clanger set at 300 yd . Dang that clang sound can get addicting . Fun with the 45-75 wcf . ,,,DT

DT,

Did you ever get a chance to look up how many left the factory with the EHB? I'm still looking for a good donor action for my own build. Just missed one the other day, all original but the barrel was toast, would have been perfect, oh well, the hunt continues.

Sarge ,  the Herbert G. Houze book pg. 116 ,   list 39 Extra Heavy Barrel 1876 rifles in 45-75 Cal. , with 27 of them being 28" Octagon . I don't know how accurate that is , but that's what is listed . Good luck on finding the right donor action .,,,DT

Does it list any calibers other than 45-75?

Sarge yes it does . Is there any specific Caliber you are interested in . If I remember right they list 90+ EHB barrels 45-60 WCF  28" Octagon . Many different length barrels are listed in EHB but 28" seem's to be the most common length  listed . ,,DT

Many thanks! Just curious if all calibers were produced with EHB and which one is the rarest?
