    So what toys can I expect?

    I have 16 rounds left for the 45-70.

    Anyone game? My shoulder had a bruise for 4 days after 32 rounds.

    I have 60 M1 carbine rounds ready. May get time to make some more.

    No .44 made yet as I havent cast the heads for it.

    Might try and throw together some .223.

    Shotgun rounds (about 400 of these)

    Toy box:

    Parker Hale 1200 98 sportster in .243
    Remington 597 in .22 mag
    Norinco M305
    Remington 870

    Plenty of ammo for all, so if anyone wants to try any of them out you're more than welcome to.

    Probably just my target .22 but I'm there with bells on if there are rounds going spare for the 45-70...

    I really need to get myself another rifle to play with...

    This is when we need the range up and running so the pistols can be brought out. Would love to try out a 9mm one day.

    EDIT:
    I'll be bringing at least my Brno and possibly the SKS

    16 rounds of 45-70.

    535 gn bullet powered by 64 gns of FFg BP
    All this in a rifle that weighs about 8lbs, with a 29" barrel.

    Did I mention that it had a steel crescent butt plate.

    The pain does go away. Its called numbness.

    Dont forget these rifles were built for military cadets to use.

    Thats boys of between 16 and 18 years of age.

    Thats why the barrel is cut down to 29 inches as opposed to the full military of 32 inches

    Also why the stock is 9 1/2 inches instead of the 10 1/2 of the military issue.

    All of you with the possible exception of RM and Indy, are grown men. Surely you can stand a little pain.

    But back in those days 16-18 year old boys were 8 foot tall, lived in lakes, walked to and from school in bare feet up hill both ways, they were bred hard.

    They're also a lot younger, fitter and have supple bones...

    I'm going to pick up RM and Indy from the shore and there is a spare seat if required...

    And I'm sure the 45-70 will be painful, that's half the fun! With the shorty .44 magnum revolver somewhere in courier van on its way here I should probably get used to that feeling...

    Wolf: Tuesdays or Thursdays at 7pm in central city, gimme a day or 2 notice and bring $15 for visitors fee, I'll bring the .22, the 9mm and the .44!

    I can pick you up in the Evo if you like. PM me.

    Maybe Jono should swing by Alex's on the way back through South and we can convoy from there?
