Title: Billy Dixon Armi Sport Sharps 50-90 for Spencer Carbine Trade **Photos Added**
Post by: Eric F on August 12, 2008, 07:23:48 AM
Hi folks my apologies if this in in appropriate.

I have a 50-90 Sharps Billy Dixon Model I would like to trade for a Taylors/Armi Sport 56-50 Spencer Carbine.

My rifle is less than a year old I have shot it about 25 times comes with 50 pieces of brass half are once fired and 1 is split a little at the neck.  Lyman dies and about 25 530 gr lead bullets.

This model had a longer barrel than the standard offering it had dual triggers. With my loads right now I am getting 2 inches at 100 yards still shooting slightly right. I need a brass drift pin.

About Billy Dixon. Well, he was a semi popular Buffalo hunter but he is more famous for killing an Indian virtually stopping an attack at a place called Adobe walls(I think) The shot was surveyed to be 8/10 of a mile. This sharps Rifle is supposedly modeled after his buffalo gun that he shot the Indian with. By the way Even Billy said it was a lucky shot.

I would like a Spencer Carbine brass and dies would be nice but not 100% necessary.
