Came with a box of "stuff" to include RCBS 2 cav mold & handles, Lee dies, brass, cast bullets, size-lube die .446" and a couple of books full of data/info. It was a good day.

Hafta love the "45cals".
Point being that at the time it was more the norm than anything, and no matter if they´re 43" or whatever.. same same IMO.

In short, congrats on a REAL cool rifle! Now go make it shoot! :grin:
It´s not a wall ornament ya know...

Lyman 446110, pc, over 29 grains of imr 4198 is what shoots good in mine.
