Here we go with another DUMB Question??

[Ace Lungger]

Howdy Pards,
As allways , another dumb question! I now own 2 IAB Sharps, one is a new one that I got a while back that was Imported by TriStar, the one I got last week in on trade is a IAB imported by EMF, the guns don't look that different.
Can anyone tell me, if there will be any diff in the guns?
Any help I will be great full!

There will be a difference.  Even two barrels that come off the line together do not shoot the same.  To compare two different rifles made at different times and likely by different manufacturers is going to demonstrate differences.  Not to say that it's impossible to find a load that will be the ant's knees for both rifles, but the chances are against it.  You may find a load that performs reasonably well in both.

Thanks FJ.
 Looks like I will have to speed some extra time and see which one shoots the best, I did find out the last one I got is a 1866 and the one I bought new is 1874, because I am building a Rolling Block45-70 and it is almost done, and I don't to work on 3  BP loads.
thanks ACE
