THE AMERICAN SHARPS SHOOTERS, 2017-4

[Rowdy Rick]

Mike, Rick.

Again a very finem job for this issue of the American Sharps Shooter, The whole issue!!

Mike I see you and I will have to spend time exchanging notes on the .44's, be it at the Q or around a campfire where ever it might be burning. I have 5 .44's bottle necked and straight walled cases and if had a choice of two rifles to pick from no matter what the other calibers are my hand would reach for the .44.
I know I have mentioned many times that this is my last rifle I will have build, but there is always another .44 I yearn for.
Some day I might call CSA and tell them I still have the .44-77 or the .44-75 Ballard reamer that needs a rifle to be build around them.
You guys keep up the good work.
Kurt

Kurt, Thanks for the kind words! We had a reader ask what the twist on my Pedersoli 40-65 is, and it is a 1-16 twist. The twist rate will stabilize both the 350 gr and 416 grain paper patch bullets I shoot. Have not shot them at 800 yards or farther though.
