.44-77 PP bullets.

[Don McDowell]

Jim, got to love those rifles with a tale to tell.
The 77 I am referring to in this time frame is a 1877 with most of the bells and whistles, except I didn't use the fancy wood. Chamber is 45-90, and I as hoping to have it to go to Phoenix, and when that didn't quite happen the hope was to break it in at Alliance followed by Lodi a few days later... Now that doesn't look like a doable... so I'll wait.
I was very happy to learn that loads that chambered and operated fine in a Shiloh standard chamber, work fine in my highwall with it's Eron Ahmer chamber,( another shooters CPA took a dump at Phoenix and he and his partner were trying to use the same rifle, I let Rick use my highwall for the majority of the match) so the hope is there will be no need to keep separate rounds for each rifle..
But yes I do have another 44-77 in the pipeline, should of been done around the end of this year, but betting it'll be later.. It's a #1 , 32 inch standard weight barrel, using the same 7 degree lead reamer as on my #3 that shoots so well.
