trapper,
a 40/70 bn in some mid range style could get your wife shooting a sharps as well, and you can still use it for hunting.
keep safe,
bruce.

Trapper, Getting your wife to shoot with you is probably a real good idea. And a .50/70 will be just as good for the lady. By the way, you mentioned 600 grain bullets in the .50 and if that's what you think you want to shoot then consider getting a .50/90. I got my new .50/70 to be a small rifle and it might weigh under 10 pounds. That new gun gets fired today for the first time. Shoot sharp, Mike

OR You could truly get the best of the cartridges, the one that paved the way for the johnny come lately 45's,,, the one the true buffler runners used...
The 44-77, mild recoild, accuracy abounds, and it's just flat cool..

[Mike]

Hey Don, I was afraid you'd bring that up... But you're right. Shoot sharp, Mike

[Don McDowell]

Just couldn't help myself

they aint a one of them ctgs tht is a back burner .... the 50-70 is sweet , mine is an old roller with a cut down barrel , looks like a reservation rifle , shoots bunnys real good , the 50-90 is an oversized chambered farmer and will keep up with the others to the q buff with barrel sights the 44 and 45 2&7/8 are new tight chambered guns , and are super easy to use.they all just work , ,,

[Don McDowell]

Yeh but them 50's are just short and fat lookin...

[powderburner]

yeah , but so are you and you are still functional aint you ????now where are them smilies?

[Trapper]

Actually I have been looking at the 50-90, because brass is available. Thinking maybe there is another rifle in the near future. That is what is so appealing Don.
