Gents,
Must say that Buckshot is very ambitious in shortening that Mauser action.
That is NOT a trivial project. Nice work boss.

Gents,
I'm building a rifle on a Remington-Hepburn action in 25-35 for a very old,

Gents,
Thanks for the info.
I'll go with the stock chamber (factory ammo still exists! Who Knew?)

Greg,
Tell me more! Is your billet for sale, or going on your rifle?
What does your 770 gr solid look like? Is it something you designed?
Did you make your own mold or have it done...
Hubel,
I guess the slow twist is why it shoots a round ball really well!
The Paradox bullet is built sort of like a Lee REAL bullet. A ball with

Gents,
