Speaking of 50's...the Govt Round

[Caprock]

Having an original sporting roller converted from .32 rimfire to 50-70 govt. Twenty-eight inch heavy, 1 in 24 twist, .500 bore & 515 groove, and with a 7 degree leade. I expect paper patch bullets will predominant in my loadings with maybe a few greasers here and there. This rifle has a set trigger and at one time had the Rough and Ready sight so an MVA will have to do (last original I saw sold for around 800 and I thought that was cheap!)

So to get to the point.....is anyone shooting the 50-70 and specifically PPB??? Stephen Borud?????

PS: Am needing an original forend tip for a 1.0 or very slightly larger barrel channel!
