Now here is another one for you folks. I got three 40-82's. One I built up to use for some long range playing and it is on a Remington Rolling Block action and built to look like a "Gemmer Hawken" rifle. One is a restoration of an '86 and the other one is a modern customization of a Model 71. That one has made "Meat" but the other two haven't. When I got started with this caliber I could not find any data on this caliber so did all my work by the "Seat of My Pants". After playing around with about 25-30 different loads and powders I finally got some that work. With the New Model 71, I use 58 grains of 3031 and a Barnes 260 grain jacketed flatnose bullet with super results. My question, now, is--how many of you have or are playing around with this caliber. Would be curious to know. Thanks.
