RE: .44-77 and paper patch?
Kurt,
I was wondering where you were! I mean we are talking .44 caliber here!
Thanks, that's just the sort of thing I wanted to hear. Because Shiloh is putting the barrel on this rifle I'm planning to go with their standard GG chamber. The main reason being that I know I can make that work with a 2-diameter PPB. I have experience with their standard chambers in my .45-90 and .45-70 plus other rifles with grease groove chambers and all have done very well with paper patch. Though there is one rifle I'm still working on.
Do you happen to have a drawing of Shiloh's standard .44-77 chamber/reamer or know where I can find one? If so, I'd really like to see it.
