I read about Glenn deRuiter's unfortunate event after I had bought two Winchester-Lees. Then there was the blow up November 2014 that destroyed another rifle but the gentleman lived. It appears both were using resized .30-40 brass and fast powder. I do not think there would be a problem if they, or ...

I think the guys on CMP would be you best bet. Just post a WTB and see what happens. Make sure to state no drill rifles.

A Remington Lee to Camp Perry? Did not think about that but I do like the way you think. No, it is an idea from several years ago to have a Rem-Lee to go with the Win-Lee's and the 1895 and the Krags.

Hmmmm. I think I need to read up on reduced loads for when the 1895 comes back from Turnbull's.

You should put that pound of powder to good use while you are on the mend.

I was wondering if there is any news on Mr. DeChistopher's parts. I really do not like the idea of doing business on Ebay again after all these years.

No such luck for yours truely. Twenty-four inches to the bolt face.<br /><br />It does not have a rear sight which is okay since I have six or so carbine sights lying around somewhere.<br /><br />Also it needs the spring for the magazine. Anyone know where i can find one?<br /><br />Will try to get ...
