    A Few Pics

    Here are some of my recent casting and loading pics.















    "There he bought a saddle, a .22 caliber single-shot rifle, and a .45 caliber Business Sharps, a somewhat ligher version of the Big Fity Sharps, the favorite rifle of the buffalo hunters. He already had a 12 bore muzzleloading shotgun, so his arsenal was complete, and along with an ax and a few other necessities, he had the basic tools of a frontiersman.~Trails of a Wilderness Wanderer~Andy Russell~

    Great pictures!!!!!! In picture # 4 the one on the right looks like the 457122 330gr. That one is my favorite hunting boolit. In picture # 5 that boolit looks more like the 457124 385gr. boolit. I have that one also. It is a great all around boolit for hunting long range and just a fun boolit to shoot. I also have that same rifle. When I got it it was also a carbine, I later had a 27" barrel put on it as the bore was over size, like .460". The stock even has the tiger stripes like yours.
