A safe load of bp, you can fill case as much as you can to still seat the bullet, with 3f swiss It will fit. Try the 270gr KEITH style bullet, hard cast. As far as smokeless loads go, I wouldn't go over 45 colt pressure.

I believe the action wouldn't be strong enough, a 410 Frame is pretty small. Normally a 20 GA or larger, double chopper lump with a greener cross bolt is needed for any rifle cartridge, some under levers are a exception to the rule. It all.depends on how the action locks up and strength of the...

I think they look much better with a slimmer look also, doing one, myself

These are.rifled 45 colt barrels reamed out to chamber the .410 shell. Only way to have a shotgun in a handgun is with rifled bores, or a tax stamp in America. Original antiques are mostly exempt.

They can be trimmed down to 2 1/2, that would give room for the bullet to stick out and still have room for bp, or shotgun powder and fiber wads. I'll try and get some 410 shells ordered and play with it also. If nothing else, they can be trimmed back, until they work with a .451 non healed...

Yeah, I learned as a youth, if I recall, it like reading a micrometer, correct?

You may have to use a healed bullet. On the other hand, maybe expand the neck of the brass out, to just fill the chamber. Brass shells are thinner then standard shotgun shells. Also, have you slugged your bore? I have a cheap Comanche 410/45, I guess I'll have to get some brass shells and take...

Got the gages, thanks. Do you have any veneer caliber for sale?

It would actually be quite easy to take a old small framed 16ga shotgun with pitted barrels and Mono block it for 577 snider or 45-70 or 57-70. As long as the action is strong enough...tight, double chopper lumped and greener cross bolt. It may have to be a NFA item, I would have to look at the...

I do also, all my reloading books are 2200-2400 fps, max. For the 9.3x74R,. I would expect it's rimless stable mate to be about the same, I think their is a Magnum one though, maybe that is what he is talking about, though I still doubt those speeds.

Welcome, sure glad to more folk from Montana on here, I'm by Troy

I agree

What the hell is wrong with people? We didn't need 9 mil illegals, we needed a nation of lazy people cut off.from the government tit. We now just have more people living on hand outs. Yes I know, some are hard working, but a lot arnt.

Plan on getting one of them also,.and 450-400

This is just sad

This book filled in a lot of gaps in the information that I had, including action types, barrel inserts and how it should be sighted in.

I thread mine by putting the die in a vise and chucking the rod in a hand drill, some oil on the die and guide the rod with my off hand to prevent whipping, works like a charm.

Ok, thank you

I don't know why I would be banned, or what the glitch is. Anyway, I would like the dial indicators, when this is figured out, let me know how to pay for them.

Can you take your own guns into New Zealand now, or do you still use the guides?

I have been left on the side of the road by all of them, except for Studebaker...and I never owned one of them awesome trucks.

Thats.no joke right their, piece of garbage, for sure

Ruger no1

And dodge and International are better then both of them......got a big stick and stired up the dark stuff from the bottom

The one eyed one horned flying purple people eater...

Seems like a lot of movement of sporting goods stock lately. Makes you wonder what is about to take place. In the past it seems like a lot of movement like this preceeded big political changes in gun laws.

On hard recoiling doubles, including shotguns, if you shoot the front trigger first, sometimes the recoil will move your finger to the rear trigger, making it fire also, hence doubling.

I have looked at the mounts from NECG before and figured I could fit them myself. I also new the scope would be off and theirfore would throw off the shotgun like handling of it. I would actually prefer a bolt peep sight, but these are very hard to find, may have to build one myself. When you...

I had thought about gold lines also, or the bolt peep, on a extra cocking piece.

That would be awesome

So, I have a question, my 9x56ms is unmounted and I am starting to have problems seeing the sights, how much sacrilege is it to mount a scope to it?

My 9x56ms and my big Blackie, I make everything loom small, it's about 500lbs. All that meat is from o e bear.

Schaftol actually is a oil that hardens, lt is a actual stock finish. I use it a lot, myself.

If works good with the big ones, 2f for the 800gr round ball and the 1200 gr one. The 1800 gr one I actually did for cape Buffalo, but never made it, the 1200gr I had thought for grizz and the round ball for everything else. I have yet to.kill anything with it, except for stumps and trees. I...

I do what I'm talking about with a 1800 grain bullet and 300grs or more of 1f, sometimes you just have never choice but to move. I do what you're talking about with guns up to 600 nitro, black powder guns have a longer recoil curve, depending on the length of the barrel. I'm 6'2" and 250lbs, I...

She is a really nice looker, you may have to have it regulated, or try it at longer range, mabe 75 yards to see if they get.closer.

With black powder, it should be more of a rolling hard shove. With mine, I take a step back and keep the rifle as.mutch on target as possible, like a train on the rails. It will help save your shoulder, as.you move with it, just constraining on controlling the muzzle.

I don't own one, but a 450-400 double, because I have always wanted one. For plains game, either 9.3x74R which I do own, or 375 flanged, which I am going to build on a faurquison action.

22 Hornet is even better for deer, yokes and turkeys.

I was wondering when someone was going to list this cartridge.

I take my 8bore fainter out for elk sometimes, just haven't got anything with it yet.

I agree, I mostly just hunt with all of mine, if just target shooting, I use schutzen or goes, as it is much cheaper .

I don't shoot mine very often, unless I have several pounds of powder on hand, because they eat so much. Have you tried 1 1/2 or 2f Swiss powder? I have found Swiss to work the best in mine. I know, muzzleloader vs cartridge, but some info carries over.

Mini balls were designed and used in rifled muskets. The bullets were undersized for easy fast loading when the barrels were fouled, then the skirt would expand the bullet that would fill the grooves and scrap out the fouling. A really interesting bullet design as the bullets didn't actually...

I load and modify a lot of obsolete cartridges as well as wildcats now. Unfortunately, I sold both my Herters rifle and shotgun presses and moved on to RCBS, Hollywood, Dillon for rifle and pistol And Lee and Hornady for shotgun, as well as the antique hand loads and roll crimper. As normal...

I did it for customers, when I worked as a gunsmith, I did take any pictures I do have some brass from when my granddad did something similar though, I'll have to dig them out. I have tubing on hand for other future projects and also save brass, just in case I need to turn some down. I don't...

Not gonna argue against that reasoning. I have soldered tubing onto case heads for low pressure cartridges without a problem, may try high strength locktight next time. Neat fix to a unique problem.

This is all I did when I started loading in the early eighties, if the cases got too dirty, they got a vinegar wash. Used a old herters press and C&H dies and a scoop my grandad help me make..he had a old scale. I load a lot different now, then I did then, but I killed animals then and still...

That's really neat. Do you find the locktight better then low temp solder? I have always used low temp, like force 44.

Thank you, I'm thinking of making one, this helps.
