I someone ask me to drop and update every now an then on this 1885 I'm working on,
So here's where I'm at as of today, I've got a most of the little bits like screws and pins and such made and am working on getting the lower tang and finger lever to fit in the receiver casting.
The quarter is in the photo for a size comparison, the rounds in the photo are 45/70's, I'm thinking I may make it a 45/90 or 45/110 just for the sheer laugh factor when people see the loaded round.
Oh yea those in the photo are 405 grain round nose big enough to stop a bull buffalo in his tracks.
