Greetings!
Well, you're a couple of notches better than I... I STILL haven't shot my NM Carbine! See if you can get some reloading data for us.
Also, get yourself a subscription to the J.C. Devine Auction Catalogues; many collectors start out with "second condition" firearms until the "too nice to shoot" firearms arrive. I've gotten some great deals on Good/Very Good & Better "shooters". Not to mention that the catalogues are beautiful!!! Do a "google" search, I can't remember their contact info.
Be Well!
