After being gone for an extended period of time my rifle is finally back to the house!
Bought it back in August of last year and had it shipped to Turnbull Restoration for some work. Had it color case hardened, rechambered to 45-90 and the rebounding hammer and tang safety removed.
Got it home for a short period of time and put 10 rounds through it.
Them crescent butt plates are pure hell on me!
So off to Macon Gunstocks.
Choose my stock blank and the work started.
Had it checkered in the period correct Winchester "H" pattern at 22lpi's.
Had two butt pads done up for it. One for show and one for the field which it is wearing.
Been doing a lot of casting of 350gr and 400gr boolits for it the last couple of days.
Going to be headed to the range soon!!!!
