I'm in! Thanks for the chance at this Pete. I like the design.....those tiny little brass ones seem to disappear pretty easily.

C. Cash

Mesa was actually a seperate community back then? Yeah you could easily walk out of your neighborhood and be in the desert. We drove up toward Canyon Lake alot to shoot....was easy to pull off on the road up there and have a serious shooting session. Gilbert and Chandler were out in the middle of n...

C. Cash

Started with cap guns and westerns....roaming the deserts around Mesa, AZ as a young kid with my Dad. We shot alot. First gun at age 4 or 5 was an Ithaca 49 single shot lever. Family split up when I was 12 and I went to live with my granparents and uncle, and heard stories of Texas and Oklahoma wher...

C. Cash

Thanks Bill....will check that out.

C. Cash

This weekend I will get it on the bench and familiarize myself with the parts. I have never fooled with triggers much except to take the whole group off the frame. The shim sounds like it is worth a try before I do anything else.

C. Cash

Had a double charged 22 Winchester Wilcat destroy the bolt and extractor on our Marlin 39a. Case head blew out the gas port and the case body stayed in th chamber. Had my boy not have had his shooting glasses on, he would probably not have sight in his right eye. ALWAYS wear protective glasses when ...

C. Cash

Thanks guys. This is the non rebounder. Light strikes are rare. Like many 94's the mainspring tension feels very light, as opposed to my Marlin. Just makes me wonder about locktime as I have to work harder to make the Win. Shoot well. I want this rifle as reliable as possible when we go after hogs a...

C. Cash

I would like to look into trying a beefier mainspring for my Big Bore 94, in an attempt to decrease locktime/increase accuracy and reduce occasional light strikes. Mine has been changed out to the non rebounding hammer. Is Wolf still the way to go or are there other, better options? Thanks in advance.

C. Cash

Glad I wasn't on the flight and glad you are OK.

C. Cash

Cash, that is some really impressive wood on that rifle of yours!!!! I don't think I want a rifle so long I can't turn sideways without hitting something or someone :lol: or doubles as a pole vault :lol: but I'm sure it shoots real well!!! -Tutt Thanks Tutt! In the woods it's not much of a problem ...

C. Cash

Will do!

C. Cash

All very nice, and versatile. I have been really impressed with the heavy cast 180's in 357 Mag. of late. Not much it wouldn't stop it seems to me.

C. Cash

That's a keeper! Yeah, I like a little more weight out front. A 42" long 15/16" across the flats barrel in 54 is just right. 75 Grains 2f under a .530 RB and .016 ox yoke patch, slathered with Lehigh valley lube(now called Mr. Flintlock's Lube), makes em all go into the same hole. I would ...

C. Cash

You got it Jay.

C. Cash

So sorry to hear this....will do.

C. Cash

Done Brother!

C. Cash

Barrel/cylinder gap can make a big diffrence in any revolver.....even the little 22. A tight b/c gap will lead to much less percieved blast and noise to the shooter. Once spoiled with a revolver fitted like a swiss watch, several calls to a guy like Alan Harton will be in order to make all your othe...

C. Cash

Wow!

C. Cash

Two inadvertant gift which I thought would be ready a loooong time from now, but both became ready at the same time: a Custom Early Lancaster Longrifle and my Super Blackhawk is done at Alan Harton's. Now to start selling my blood at the Red Cross to pay for them and the rest of Christmas. :shock: G...

C. Cash

Good to see your post Charles, and Merry Christmas!

C. Cash

Glad you are headed in the right direction. We went through it recently......it hangs in there a good while. Prayers headed your way.

C. Cash

Since we're all a bunch of enablers....... Built by B.J. Habermehl of Central PA: 54 cal. Left handed Early Lancaster with Green Mountain Barrel, Tiger Hunt stock, Chambers Lock. http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b96/CCash/DSC_0099_zpsa4626eb1.jpg http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b96/CCash/DSC_009...

C. Cash

My experience is not extensive, but from what I have shot and seen, ignition with some of the european guns can be a gamble as Pete says. I've seen alot of misfires in percussion form. My TC Renegade always seem to go boom as did my custom Longrifle. If you like the historical accuracy of a piece as...

C. Cash

Dang that is nice all around!

C. Cash

Done Jay!

C. Cash

C. Cash

Done!

C. Cash

Congrats! The Beartooth 210 has a little wider meplat but has to seat deeper. In the 356 Win. it works but not sure if the 35 Rem. neck is shorter and whether it is usable. Looks like you did well with that bullet.

C. Cash

The Beartooth 210 gr. LFNGC works well in my in my 356 Win. and has a nice flat point for shock. That buggar blew through both sides of my hog at the shoulders and dug a hole on the ground on the other side. Performance was excellent and a quick kill. IMR 4320 works well in mine with this bullet, an...

C. Cash

I had a crack on my Gran Dad's old 37 Winchester shotgun, running the length of the wrist and beyond. I got a large, long drill bit and drilled straight down the crack length ways, towards the buttstock. I filled it with the 2 part epoxy....shooting it in With the syringe provided. Then, I inserted ...

C. Cash

Excellent Joe! Congrats on that fine doe with, dare I say it, a classic cartridge.

C. Cash

He seemed like one of the truly good ones who made a difference in the lives of a lot of folks. I enjoyed talking to him, and miss his presence here.

C. Cash

Looking good fellas! Glad you all had the chance to link up.

Thank you Ted! Yeah....the imagination runs wild when you pick it up. If you see a large clumsy middle aged white boy attempting to run through the woods like Daniel Day Lewis, you know why.

C. Cash

Might take out the Big Bore in 356 Win. But for sure this one:

C. Cash

I was totally and completely Underwhelmed by "Dead Man's Walk", supposedly the precursor to the Lonesome Dove saga.. There is No Way that the characters (Gus & Woodrow) portrayed by smarmy David Arquette and Jonny Lee Miller, could ever have matured into the Men, played by Duvall &...

C. Cash

It is very cool that they are being made here on these shores. It's on the bucket list.

C. Cash

... Very impressed with the 180's and wonder why they are not use more often? Got me... I carry either Federal 180gr HP almost exclusively for CCW, but am not at all afraid to run my BB Equivalent loads out of my SP101 (1200fps). I actually prefer either to Factory 158 SP. Yeah, the hot 158's out o...

C. Cash

I tried some of the Buffalo Bore 180's....one of those five more minutes of usable daylight situations after patterning my boy's shotgun for turkey. They are thumpers out of he 2.75" Security Six! Nice fireball too in the dark....good minute of bear medicine. Hit close to point of I'm at 25 yar...

C. Cash

Very nice. I like the cut down 1861? rifle/carbine.....I've seen a couple in the National Civil War Museum made up like that for Confederate Cavalry Service. Waiting with baited breath for my 2nd Early Lancaster Long Rifle to be ready...should have it Monday and will post pictures.

Amen....always good to see your posts. Hope our good friend has been doing well.

C. Cash

I really like the cast with a classic lever.....just feels right to me. After using up my factory I just had no desire to keep using the jacketed. I get good accuracy and little leading. My hunting experience is limited but would not hesitate to use that Beartooth load on any big game I am hunting. ...

C. Cash

New thread is up.

C. Cash

Fred.....Regarding your question, I only have a couple of basic loads for my 356 Winchester. My first load was out of the Lyman cast bullet manual. 42.0 grains IMR 4350 under an RCBS 200 gr. FNGC. I get some unburned powder but when I get the seating depth just right it plunks them into .75" at...

C. Cash

I could see how a rapidly expanding "44" bullet driven at a mild velocity could get stopped on the gristle plate. Though there is not much cast info in Mike's data.....one could infer that from it and the hunting experiences of others, that a heavy cast bullet of proper hardness is not goi...

C. Cash

Welcome! Congrats on that hog...I like the 35's. I have the 356 Win. but shoot it t 35 Rem. velocities.

C. Cash

Nice pigs/Levers fellas! Thanks for sharing the experiences. Brian is very blunt....and funny at the same time. You can tell he's seen it all.

C. Cash

Mike...thank you for the info! I have to stare and scratch my head before it all comes together and sinks in and will be looking at this. What Do the ratio's mean? Yeah, if I saw me for the first time I would be concerned! :lol: :lol: Especially after two hours of sleep and no coffee. My 12 year old...

C. Cash

Joe....guide Brian Barnes seemed a little concerned that we were using a 44 Mag/Special on his hogs, and reported seeing a good number of bullets stick in the gristle plate in this caliber, and likes the 35's better. I know he's seen tons shot so there must be something to his observation. Can you a...
