    Well, DA
  2. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Where are you located. I'm in SW, SGF, Mo.
  3. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    What's a "LB" mainspring?
  4. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    What sights are on the Sharps? You want Soule type for easy windage and elevation. Also, a Hadley Eye Cup is good to have.
  5. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Curious, as to what the issues were with the problem version.
  6. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Do they have the lock inside the grip area? The factory hammer spring is 17lbs. The factory trigger return spring is 30oz. Folks refer to them as New Model Vaqueros.
  7. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    NRV?
  8. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Bet you ordered old model Vaquero springs. NMV come with 17 lb hammer springs. Order directly from Wolff and ask that the springs be pulled from the same lot run. This will keep them equal.... Do some research and maybe call Wolff Gunsprings. https://www.gunsprings.com/RUGER/SMALL+FRAME+(XR-3)+SINGLE+ACTION/cID3/mID52/dID229

    Lots of us use a over primer wad of paper at the bottom of the case. Montana Vintage Arms makes a fantastic powder measure. Always 'listen' to your target.

    Get rid of that IAB. Can't get any parts for them. You want a barrel R.O.T. of at least 1/18. Do not use smokeless powder bullet lube with BP.
  11. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Better choices than that 405. Look at Postell and Creedmoor profile. Load with black until you compress the powder about 1/8" when the bullet is seated. What do you call long range? What rifle are you looking at?
  12. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Those bbl rings are not good. I would see what a target a 25 yds sez.
  13. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    I want one
  14. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Is this a new or used gun?
  15. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    DONE
  16. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Not rust! Copper fouling from test firing. Your gun is made of stainless steel.
  17. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Best of news. I do suggest you look into a 1 piece firing pin.
  18. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Nor do I!
  19. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    You are correct, my mistake. SORRY!
  20. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    BATFE has no sense of humor! They catch you shipping powder or primers without the proper permit. You will be hauled to court. Those FFL's are really taking a big chance. The least being the loss of the FFL.
  21. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Al's family said the shoot will continue.
  22. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    My wife has no problems shooting her Shiloh Sharps Hartford Model in .45-70 at the Q. I use a Shiloh #1 in .45-90.
  23. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    Unless they have BATFE Explosive Shipping Permit. It's not legal........ Being a FFL means nothing here.
  24. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    FYI, has to be a FTF sale. You can't ship'em.....
  25. The Original Lumpy Gritz
    It would then be a antique one
