Sending positive vibes your way brother.

At the risk of starting WW3 I picked up a mint Shiloh Sharps saddle rifle with 30 inch heavy oct barrel in 50-90. Came with MVA sights. Haven't fired it yet but soon.

I have a couple of cans of 5744 so I may try it in the 50-70. Will be using it in my 45-90 High Wall.

Today was my turn to have the bench I share with my wife the painter. Two bedroom apartment living means compromise. I have a new RCBS press mount primer so I primed up 20 50-70 cases. My Sharps 1863...

Yes winters can be a challenge here. Hasn't warmed up yet. I actually lived in Huntsville Alabama from 58 to 61. My Dad was Canadian Army on loan to U.S. army at the Redstone Arsenal. I did grade...

Interesting thread indeed. I wanted to go this route with my 43 Spanish roller. Fairly costly endeavour here in Canada. Greenmountain barrel =600.00 imported. Reamer=250.00 imported. Gunsmithing...

Hello Highwall55. I'm a little late to the party but I was able to get Bertram Brass imported to Canada for my 43 Spanish roller. I'm not sure if it came from the states or Australia as I went thru...

Thank you Lead pot. I've greatly enjoyed reading your posts on the 50-2.5. I'll try that 540gr for now because that's the mould I have. If I get a chance to shoot a good distance I'll go with...

jdb3 Thanks for the reply. That's a great moose. I know you have some real giants in Alaska compared to our Ontario Eastern Moose. Good to hear you had success with that bullet.

Sorry to hear that Sir. I have had the pleasure of back problems in the past. No fun at all. I got some PP bullets from the chap I bought my 50-90 from. They came from a KAL mold at 1.6 inches long...

Rev Al Do you have any follow up information on your KAL mold?
I'll probably get one too.

Hi Folks. Hope everyone is staying safe during these difficult days. My Shiloh Sharps 74 in 50-90 has a 22 or 24 ROT according to the previous owner. I have read lots here about not getting accuracy...

Thank you. I've been a lurker for a while but now it's time to get serious.

Thank you. I'll try to get some up soon as I unpack my camera. We just moved back here a week ago so lot's of boxes to unpack yet.

I have his recipe and I plan to reverse engineer his wrapping technique and see what happens. I would like to go a little shorter on the bullet say 1.45 as I have read here. Length being more...

Hello everyone. New to the forum and saying hi. I'm in Ontario Canada and will probably be the only BP shooter within 500 miles of me. My Shiloh Sharps 50-90 is arriving in the mail today so I'm very...
