Well folks the title says it all. I have a pristine, in the white 1901 patent Smokeless Rolling block action. I am having fits trying to decide which caliber to barrel it in. Here is my short list, and I want to stay with a caliber I already have, dont want to start loading for another caliber.
.38-55, I have one, a hi wall, brass and molds already
.40-65 I have a 40/82, and dies, and I have 3 boxes of factory .40/65 ammo
.50/70, I have a trapdoor and a sharps carbine, thought about making a long barrel sporting rifle, but really dont need another one in this caliber
.30/30, a long barrel slim sporter would be neat,keep it slim and a classic caliber
7x57, I already have a #5 in 7x57 in about mint condition, military model. But a nice sporter would be the cats meow.
All you guys chime in here and give me feeback. I am leaning towards the 7x57 the most.
