Great thread - but now unfortunately I have to build one! Are the plans and parts list the same as the ones posted in the stickies?

Thanks guys. I was hoping that dimensioned schematics would be available somewhere - but not that I've found so far. I've also be amazed at the the differences between the various models. Oh well,...

Hi - I've taken on a project to rebuild one of the Savage Stevens Favorite Model 30s. Does anyone know where I could find/buy the schematics (prferably dimensioned) for this rifle?

Thanks

Some great experts there that can help with the identification. It looks...

Very nice under lever ! Is it a guild gun? Mine measuers at .359, do the 366408 has precious little lube grove capacity left once sized down, and of course the 38 moulds are a little under - which...

Hi - I have a drilling in 9.3x72R and have been trying to work up some cast loads wtihout too much success. I have tried 358315, 358430 and 366408. Could you share your favourite loads? I'm...

No question about it Siamese Mauser!

Thanks - that's exactly what I was looling for. Sure miss Floodgate's posts.

Hi : I have a couple of pairs of Lyman handles that have become quite stiff to operate - almost as if they are seizing. Sometime ago Floodgate posted the rememdy for this but for the life of me I...

Buckshot : thanks for that very clear explanation. I have played around with the making dies but with a different sequence - drill, bore, drill grease holes, ream and hone. don't you find that...

Lonerider: You know they make panniers for the front wehell too - you're only had half a load!

Thanks guys. I knew it was for something machine shop related. I don't need a notch broaching fixture so canoe anchor it is.


Thanks again

I have no idea what this is but it was in a machine shop sell off and is still in the protective wax covering, Of course it followed me home. Other than a canoe anchor what's it used for?

Thanks...

I haven't been able to login to the group buy sight. Just me or is it down?

Hubertus - again thank you very much for the time and effort you've put in on this. All information is good - especially confirmatory information. Your Hunter education sounds quite extensive...

Thanks Hubertus - very informative. I do have a question about the "French triggers with separate cocking lever" It may be a terminology issue could you explain those? Certainly I'm not aware of...

Greg - these are for my 16x16x9.3x72R drilling so smooth bore. 16 guage slugs are very rare here and I suspect that the original load for this old gun was a round ball combination'

Hi folks - just got finished reading the threads about 12 gauge round ball - anyone tried 16 gauge?

Mike - any chance of a photo? I have the DWM guide and may be able to find a match - or a photo of the markings on the underside of the barrels? Sometimes they will have valuable clues. Other than...

Hubertus : PM sent,.

Here are some photos of the drilling.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hi I've just been given an opportunity to buy a 9.3x72R Drilling with the Lyman 366408 mould. I know very little about this calibre and wonder if anyone has any pet loads with this mould.

Dromia: could you PM me a list of what you're looking for?

Thanks to all for the answers. I believe that it is a homemade scope mount. As always I am impressed by the knowledge of the members here ( though a bit scared by some of the suggestions -- too...

This device came from the estate of a long time shooter and ballistician - and I am at a total loss as to what if may be for! It is very well made, though not a production item. Any ideas?

Thanks guys I'll save my money. Trev - great tip on the "RDM"

Take care
