Barrel is 28 inches round heavy contour with 1:20 twist Wood was built for the rifle by Bob also. Trigger is smooth.

Horace Patootie, SASS #35798 Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
