No problem Joe any time. How are you getting on with the old girl.
Condom bullets mine works with a 155 grain bullet using 43.2 grains of N140.
How did Ros get on with the bits I sent her I did not get any feedback I'm assuming she received them.

I'm still working on a load for it Dave, I've started low with Nobel Rifle No. 1 and just need a range day when I can get settled down with it. I've found the sights don't correspond too closely to the actual ranges I am shooting at.
Ross has been having a hectic time of late but i'm sure she'll get back to you.

I found that cast bullets certainly work but trying to calibrate the sights for cast was a nightmare. The N140 load I posted was not to bad with the original sights. I also have a scope base for mine a homemade jobby but I gave up on that the sight picture is to short because of the well yeah because of the short butt. But it's an interesting rifle and one I am not about to let go any time soon.
