Cool. Yes there is a difference. I just wish the "horders" would put the fire out that they made and carry around on their heads.

Why "stock up"?
"Stocking up" always just creates artificial demand that leads to shortages and price increases. The people running around with their hair on fire recently and who have been...

Yes you can get that trigger pull fixed. I saw some recommendations on how to reduce trigger pull in the receivers of Rolling Block #1's etc in this forum in other threads and I am sure you can...

I have a 50-90 and I have a pet full power load and a pet reduced power load. I use cork wads to fill the space above the powder and under the boolit. You can use as little as 50 grains of Black...

Yes, I agree. I wanted to learn how to make guns so I have invested in tools and bits and etc., ...fortunately I have not made too much that has gone in the trash. Yet. ...I sure don't get things...

THAT is art! Very nice. Thanks for the post and the recommendation. I will search for them now.

docone---Yes. I may consider reaming the chamber myself just wondered aloud if I might be better off to just have it done. When I cut and tapped my first barrel and installed the breech plug in a 50...

Trev---Sound advice. I have been building flintlocks, and fixing old cartridge rifles and shotguns, but yes this is my first endeavor into looking into building a cartridge rifle. Of course, what...

Wow, those are beautiful. So am I to understand that you can buy these guns now? Are they reproductions or used and from the original era?

I can cut the threads. I am just not sure about the chambering... Can't the barrel co's chamber these?

Thanks.

It looks like I will be receiving prints for the Remington No 1 Rolling Block soon!!!! I am quite excited and can't wait to move this along.

I assume these will be for a receiver that can handle...

Yea I would start with around 25 grains of black. It should not be too bad in recoil and just make sure you really pack a wad OVER the powder to take up the air space completely between the powder...

wow she is a beauty. And yes I got your private email and I emailed a thank you back. I hope you got that.

The Midway USA supply for 50-70 brass is a reliable source. Is that boolit you have in...

calaloo--Yes thanks. That is who I originally emailed early this week and before I found this site. But I emailed him a second time just now again. From the research I have completed so far the...

I am interested in buying that one! Since you returned it can you let us know who is selling it or where it can be bought?

Also here is a source for 50-70 brass---...

Also to reply to this post--

My words---"I prefer and want a rolling block that functions with the lever/tab on the top of the block that you pull down to load and lift up to bring the block back...

Thanks for the posts. Yes I own two Frank De Haas's books and was extremely disappointed in that they did not have straight forward Remington No 1 styled ROLLING Block designs, even though his books...

I would try a patched round ball. This is a muzzleloader so, I would try a .695 round ball with a fairly thick patch. The .715's are probably way to fat to get in your muzzles.

I shoot round ball...

Hi all. This is my first post here. I am grateful to find this place and to be here.

I have been building big bore flintlocks and now want to make a rolling block. The Remington No 1 is what I...
