.40-50 Hepburn

RE: .40-50 Hepburn
What happen with the two Shiloh .44-90's was I pulled the barrel on the first one and had Shiloh re barrel it with a 16 twist Krieger heavy 1.3" X 35" untapered round barrel in the .44-2.6 straight to make it a 25# long range rifle.
I liked that .44-90 bn so much and at a local gun show there was an original rifle a collector had on display that was used for the Creedmoor matches looking unused and we talked about it and I said I shot one for several years for hunting and gong shoots and it did it's job well. He asked if I had any shells left I would like to have some for display with this rifle.
I said I have but I would like to have a chamber cast of your chamber in trade so I can have a reamer made for another rifle. The trade was made and I had a reamer made as well as a rifle.
I also have a CPA in this caliber with a 16 twist.
The reason a dog has so many friends is because he wags his tail instead of his tongue.
