Sure glad - Don McDowell - 10-08-2015
that the demise of Jamison brass as predicted by some after the big fight with the feds didn't prove out.
Otherwise I wouldn't of been able to order 200 40-70 straight cases from them for the Hepburn that is coming from C Sharps
RE: Sure glad - Lumpy Grits - 10-08-2015
What was their hassle with the feds about?

Something about exporting cases without the proper permits, big court battle, all turned out ok, but you'll play hell buying cases from them if you tell them you're from Canada or elsewhere...

OK-THX
First I've ever heard of it.

It's good to hear that their problems got sorted out. Exporting brass without the proper paperwork can get people into big trouble with the U.S. gov't. The easiest way for any of these places to sell to a Canadian is to use a professional exporter handle it. That costs the buyer about $50 extra.

They make some of the highest quality brass available for bpcr shooting. Those that can't or won't give it a try are really missing out.

Hey Ranch, And fill us in with details about that Hepburn too. You know I think that is quite a rifle. Shoot sharp, Mike
RE: Sure glad - Don McDowell - 10-09-2015
Those things are probably the ugliest dang rifle ever built,,,, but this one is the one on the available list, half round barrel with the midrange sights. Having it drilled and tapped for the 23 inch MVA scope as well.
200 of the Jamison brass on the way.
They're supposed to ship the Hepburn and Carol's 22 the same day, which should maybe be sometime in the next couple of weeks.
RE: Sure glad - Mike - 10-09-2015
Those Hepburns do look ugly the way CSA stocks them but they are one of the best holding rifles for offhand that I've ever tried. One reason why I don't have one is because you just bought it! Good doin's too. Shoot sharp, Mike

Personally, I like the look of the hepburns, and especially the ones made by DZ Arms. However, they seem to like them really well, too; current prices are running in the $4K range. Uff da! It's really hard to beat the performance of the Shiloh M74.
