"You know your weapons. It's a lever-action, breech loader. Usual barrel length's thirty inches. This one has an extra four. It's converted to use a special forty-five caliber, hundred and ten grain metal cartridge, with a five-hundred forty grain paper patch bullet. It's fitted with double set triggers, and a Vernier sight. It's marked up to twelve-hundred yards. This one shoots a mite further."

"An experimental weapon with experimental ammunition."

"Let's experiment."


Me thinks skunk is on a Western Movie kick...

Westerns and booze that is....


:D
 
that is one sweet looking gun. the round reminds me of a 444 or 45-70. i used to make bullets and reload a lot of 45-70 rounds for my friend who has a shooting range. could you post a full length picture of the gun?

I think it is a 45-110.

IIRC, I have seen 45-70, 45-90, and 45-120 as well.
 
'Cause if you don't, I'll let you live. Y'know, I'm new here, so I'm kinda curious. D'you think the dingos'll get you first, or the ants?'

My pa used to say to me...boy,
A man with many rifles is dangerous,
A man with only one rifle is deadly...:D
 
Nice, is that a Shilo? Shells look to be 45-110? I have one in 45-90. Oh, there was a nice nice lookin knife there too I think.
 
like i said, that is one sweet gun :thumbup::D. are you using black powder in the loads or smokeless?
 
black powder is all i have ever used in this. i'm not sure if there's a smokeless load for this cartridge.
