Hi Guys, Gave the beast it`s first taste of lead to day, three hot shots for proofing, all is good, then seven more holding my baby with shooting sticks to set the sights at 50m. Low and right first, but last three shots are there, with a 6 oclock hold. Not to bad for a home made barrel, but when I cleaned it got a bit of leading,there`s the reason for no min of /. All that needs to be done now is to stamp "1874 SHARPS 45-70" on thetop of the barrel, then get it blued. Homebrew.357.
Attachment 47922, 50m, shooting sticks, one more shot.
Attachment 47923, last shot.
Attachment 47924, My baby got hot.
Top effort Doug.
