Spencer Shooting Society / Reproduction Spencers in .45
« Last post by Macon Due on Today at 08:16:24 PM »Howdy all
I have just been wondering how many of us have a reproduction Spencer in .45 Colt or .45 Schofield? Also.....if you do, are you having feeding problems? If you have read my latest post, you know I was about at my wits end with my Cimarron in .45 Colt. No matter what I did or how I worked the lever it was 85% reliable feeding at best. Then I came across Johnson Barr's post in reference to his .44 Russian feeding problems and how a good bullet mold restored his faith in his Spencer. I followed his footsteps and ordered a custom mold from Tom at Accurate Molds and my carbine is now 100% reliable. The difference is night & day. Just thought this might help someone else.

« Last post by Hair Trigger Jim on Today at 07:22:07 PM »I am afraid that if I see a comparably good deal on an Evans, I will pick the conversation with the wife! But if there are two of them, I might let you know about the second one. If I can talk myself out of getting a "backup." 
I'm pretty fond of the Evans platform although I've only ever held one in my hands.

Out here in tornado alley you average about a half an hour warning on tornados. 50 years ago and more ago if them sirens were blowing, it was on the ground and someone was likely dieing. Much better than being wrong about a little rain, or at least most of our opinions.

You are 100% correct about that. I am so thankful that you told how a correct bullet had cured yours! I was at the point of near giving up and now it is a joy to own & shoot.
Thank you, Sir.

Gunsmithing / Re: Rossi 92 parts- will older interarms era parts fit newer guns?
« Last post by Hair Trigger Jim on Today at 02:14:02 PM »A clear plastic bag wrapped around the gun before you take those parts down works great to catch flying springs and detents.
Badger
That is a great idea in general. I may have to do that with certain guns.

« Last post by Johnson Barr on Today at 02:05:17 PM »The bullet profile makes all the difference. Made my .44 Russian chambered carbine a pure pleasure to take to a match. Will be my 'take to' for the Grand Muster this June at Sargent, Nebraska. Nothin' better than a happy shooter, eh Alan?
