Horace Patootie, SASS #35798 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Slim, The # 5 action was Remingtons rolling block action for smokeless powder ammo. The # 1 action is not proofed for smokeless. I have a #1 RB in .43 Spanish and a Pedersoli/Navy Arms in 50/140. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
