    My choice would be 4198 for the velocity you've specified. For lighter loads Unique is great, but 4198 is best for 1500-1600 fps. You can probably use data for .33 Winchester to make a good starting...

    It's fine to only anneal 1/4-1/3 of a longer rifle case. But annealing shorter cases and only doing that far, or not getting your fingers burnt is impossible unless you sit the cases in water and...

    Most, if not all of these adapter cases that use blanks or other ignition systems to fire in RF rifles are lathe turned brass. Lathe turned brass is not the same as formed brass, so it needs...

    I personally prefer single shots with center hung hammers that are much smaller, like the High Walls you like.

    The Sharps is a beautiful rifle, but not something I got attached to. I really like a Hepburn or Ballard far better.

    Here's the latest .32-20 Hepburn!

    Or just buy a small roll of .045" piano wire and bend your own. Then you'll have plenty of extra wire leftover if you ever want to make another spring later.

    Just a heads up on ".32-40 wcf". There's no such cartridge. The .32-40 was originally called ".32-40 Ballard & Marlin" as it first was offered in the Ballard rifles, and shortly after in the Marlin...

    Frank DeHaas is one of my favorite sources for rolling Block info, but some of the guns he built, or knew of are sketchy as to chamberings he did or others did. As much as I admire his work, I've...

    Personally I would never push even a later smokeless action Roller to pressures that high! I think most feel that 30,000 psi is fine, and maybe push them to 35,000 psi.

    Pull can be reduced by replacing the trigger return spring with one made from .045" piano wire. Likely it will reduce the pull by about 50%. I make them for all my Rolling Blocks, whether rifle or...

    Thanks!
    I think from the images, and descriptions the numbers are for M. Hartley's catalog and likely not what Remington used maybe?
