What goes around, comes around! Mine should be ready this fall...
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

I was in there on Thursday, Kirk is working on my Original 40-90 bottleneck to get a paper patch bullet and load to shoot in the Sharps. I always like going in there 'cause I can go back in the shop and see them in action.
Speaking of action, that is what Kirk was working on, the new 1877 in the CNC machine. He had to complete the CNC machining process before we could run around the shop and look at all the projects he is working on, including mine.
Anyhow, they had about 10-12 finished rifles in the rack, if anyone is looking for immediate shooting pleasure, they are waiting for you in Big Timber. I only saw one on the rack that wasn't upgraded wood and beautiful. I almost bit it right there myself.

How cool is that? New cartridges are always fun to play with and in a Shiloh you know the rifle is capable. Now it's up to you, ET! Wasn't the 44-90 the first cartridge they chambered for long range work at Creedmore? Or am I crazy as a loon?
shrapnel....those kinds of places are always good for me to stay out of!!

Ain't nuthin but time and money. You seem to have both. Congrats! Time?? I is RETIRED. Money? I subscribe to "perfect financial planning". In udder werds-Ya bounce the check to the undertaker The 44/90 WAS the firstest Creedmore cartridge. Also quite popular on the buffalo range. Everything I hear sez it'll be a real SOB to get to shoot, but as I said in my opening..easy way?? Why start now???
