hello,I'm a new member and was wondering who might be shooting the 45-120. This is my first custom build rifle and I picked the 45-120. My 45-70's are great fun but I wanted something different and a challenge at the same time. I started with a 1902 # 5 Remington rolling block that was in 7mm carbine, had a heavy octagon barrel with a 1 in 18 twist made by local barrel maker, for sights I got Kelly extra long range soule rear and Kelly spirit level front, picked up 220 pieces of brass and 2 cases of goex powder, 1 of 1F and 1 of 2F for starters. For the stock I ordered from George Peterson at Tree Bone Carving. This is the last thing that I am now doing and although this is slow work for me I want a good wood to metal fit. When finished with the rifle the real work begins, finding the right bullet, powder, compression etc. As far as I can tell right now this rolling block will weigh close to 14lbs. looking forward to working up some loads and would like to hear from other 45-120 shooters, any info would be great,and thanks 120Rick.
