i wanted a 50-70 rifle also. couldnt afford one so i used my NEF 1871 500 SW mag rifle. i measured the case and it is 1/8 inch shorter. sounds do-able. then i designed my own bullet which weighs 500 grs. loading 65 grs goex BP was easy. shooting it is very satisfying. runs about 1200 fps. it's fun to shoot for sure. works out to be a 50-65, close enough for me.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Let us contemplate our forefathers, and posterity, and resolve to maintain the rights bequeathed to us from the former, for the sake of the latter. The necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude, and perseverance. Let us remember that `if we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom.' It is a very serious consideration...that millions yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event." --Samuel Adams, speech in Boston, 1771 |
