PaleWolf Brunelle, #2495L Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 You might consider posting a "WTB" on the SASS Wire Classifieds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Boy Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Which ever 40-65 you buy, Don’t buy the Chaparral 1876 clone. Very accurate barrel but the action parts were a nightmare to correct. Took 3 drives up to Charter Arms in CT, the service center and spend all day each trip going through the parts for proper fits. Was for my rifle and a good friend who bought one also after got them worked out, no complains with wood and barrel if your really interested, there is a forum on CasCity devoted to the 40-65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irish ike, SASS #43615 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I shoot a C-Sharps 40-65 highwall. The one thing I found out is brass is hard to get what you want. Starline makes and sells brass. But right on their website they warn you that their brass is short of the recommended length. About 15 thousands. I ended up resizing new Starline 45-70 brass to get the correct length. Ike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Henry 7046 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Look for a Browning BPCR in 40-65. They are a turn key kind of gun and they come with really nice sights too boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
