Re: Get out the hack saw and steel wool!

Like you, I am set up to cast/load 45-70, and wanted a RB in that caliber so I could shoot it cheap. Scored one recently in 45-70. Looking at your carbine sized rifle, I would turn it into a 38-55 ( I have a Marlin 336 waiting to go to JES to become a 38-55). Smaller octagan bbl (maybe 5/8" acr...

Re: Model 14 barrel address/barrel code

in simple terms I understand that there was a barrel of barrels and a barrel of receivers... They pulled one from each and made the rifle. Mine has one part made in 1928 and one part made in 1932 based on codes/numbers. Been told this was ordinary in the day

and then... a (dumb)? Can you use 32 Winchester Special dies to load 32 Remington? with obviously a specific 32 Rem shellholder... Thanx! Update... Looking at the specs for both. Would appear NOT! 32 Rem seems to be a few thou smaller in key areas, plus a diff shoulder, which means that the 32 WS di...

Re: my new 81

Love the model. had one in 300 Sav and it stomped the snot out of me on the shoulder end, as everyone said it would. I just didn't believe a 300 Savage auto would have anywhere near that much felt recoil, but my rebuilt shoulder flat didn't like it. Curious how one in 35 Rem is with felt recoil.

Re: Ammo & Brass for the Model 14/141

only reason I have passed on 30 and 32 Rems I have found... Glad Mdl 14 I got from you is 35 Rem. And found another one/Mdl 141 I am picking up - also in 35 Rem. Ammo still available and use brass for the Marlin!

Re: .32 Remington caliber bullet question

I just bought some 32 Speer 170 FN HotCors. Listed at .321". I would be happy to mic them and post exact size if you like. Having said that, if it were me, I would shoot any of the .321-.323 bullets - as Jim said.

Prob 80%, normal dings and scratches etc. sling posts front and rear are there. Plus for me is that I am set up for 35 Rem. have a Marlin 336 and Rem 14 in 35 R...
