Thanks for picturing the catalouge. What year or years is it for? It looks to be at or post 1900.

Gatsby-

The catalog is from 1912

Seems as if Tolley was employing rifle-chokes and invisible rifling in the same period.

I think I've corresponded with a guy who has a 12b ubique for round ball some time in the last year.

I've thought of doing 10b paradox with my 8b coggie action, also thinking about 12b super mag round ball rifle

Time will tell...
