Thanks Bob - actually, it's a Ballard reproduction when Ballard Rifle was in Cody, WY. 45-70 loaded with blackpowder and a soft 30:1 cast 540 gr bullet. Spent all afternoon trying to get close enough and 150 yds was about it. Last fall, Halloween day and got in a little hot water because I missed trick or treating with my grandsons. I think my 4 yr old forgave me the next day helping me hang it in the garage - "Grandpa - he's huge!" and proceeded to flatly tell me he's going with me when he's 5. Love that lil guy... grin


JGray: There's nothing like your grandsons! Spent yesterday with mine.The oldest is 2.5 now but I have been taking him everywhere with me since he was about 1.

Diaper bags and all! grin
