Re: Optimum load for a 45-70 DR in NA

Thank you Daryl for helping out a photo challenged memeber!!! The above pictures are the current state of the receiver and forearm part of the DR project. You can see that the receiver is in need of honing, shaping, and polishing. It has been at the gunsmith's for a week now. I have sent him all the internal parts. I do not know his schedule to finish the receiver and mate the parts. I hope no more than a month but who knows. When my 45-70 project is finished the only parts that will not be hand made and milled from stock 4340 chrome moly steel will be the receiver internals and the monobloc from an old set of Winchester 21 20 barrels. The barrels, of course were not milled from stock. So, although it will be a 21 it will not be a Winchester 21. It will be a totally hand made 21 DR. I will post pictures of the receiver when finished and ready for the next step.--Bill
