🇺🇸 The 44-70 cartridge is a great mid range performer. Relatively light recoil and has the potential for exceptional accuracy .
Excellent choice on your part.

Chas -- you NEED these!!
🇺🇸 For some reason which I cannot understand, the REDHEAD is not of the same mindset as yourself. Been married just short of 48 years, 14OCT77, and I still wonder why she thinks the way she does.🤪

Thanks for the pics of the bore.
Any possibility of pics of the barrel roll stamp and caliber markings, upper receiver tang Winchester stamp and serial number?
Serial number can be sent via P.M of deemed necessary.
Thank you for your time.

Out of curiosity, what Long range rifle are you looking to purchase?

I process my shotgun hulls just like my brass. I load my Rebel 17 with 2/3-3/4 hulls. I fill with water to an inch of the top. Add a tablespoon of Strato-Sheen and a tablespoon of Meguires wash and wax. Run for three hours. Rinse the hulls and this time of year in Phoenix, place on towel on a table in the sun until totally dry.
The hulls are very slick without being slippery. Run through the Hornady 366 slick as snail snot.
Annie and I compete in FC categories using real BP. Shells come right out of the chambers. Hulls mostly look just as once fired. Again, slick without being slippery.
I use the water mix for two to three batches before discarding.
Not using Armour All, silicone or whatever means hulls do not attract dust and are not slippery.
Works for us.

Chas B

Widder should chime in here! I know that he’s done some serious research on .22 ammunition in various guns!!
I tried to PM him but he can't receive PM's.

🇺🇸I am looking for recommendations on accurate, maybe match grade .22 ammo. I have two Ruger MKll GOVT. Target pistols and a very nice Remington 513T Match Master. I know every gun will like a particular ammo but maybe a starting point would be nice.
Thank you for your time and any recommendations given.

Progressive Shot Shell Reloader’s
in SASS Wire
Posted · Edited by Chas B. Wolfson, SASS #11104
Eight stations plus a sizer die station. Uses bushings identical to Spolar. You can lift the foot and manually index if preferred.
The powder and shot cutoffs are a must have. Primer cutoff is nice to have. Very reliable and produces factory appearance shells. This one gets fed STS hulls.
I have another setup for AA hulls that I load trap, skeet, sporting clays and hunting loads on.
If using different hulls on one press, the only real adjustment I have found is the ram that applies primer seating pressure. Maybe a small crimp adjustment.
I load Federal Metro Field hulls for my 1887. I trim the crimp ears off and use an overshot card. The final station on the press puts a roll on the case mouth. This comes in real handy loading the Federal hulls. That roll keeps the overshot card in place, no water glass of Elmers Glue required.
Very reliable with small learning curve.
Yes, that is a Dillon handle.
Deprime, primer seat, powder drop, wad seat, shot drop, starter crimp, final crimp and case mouth roll.
Resize die also deprimes.
Very robust press that is still supported. Only plastic items are spent primer container, powder and shot tubes with caps and primer feed tray.
Can be purchased new, still being made or used: E-Bay $500.00 and up.

Chas B

And I do know press could use a cleaning.
