Very nice!
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!

Hello there,
I liked the pic of you rolling block. A lot of fun to shoot. Heres the one i bought last year [if the pic works]...if not just go to: https://www.flickr.com/photos/john60wal ... ed-public/
if your intrested.
I did have one mishap when I accidently double-charged a case...but all that happened was the 'gate' bent out of shape...& my ever forgiving gun-smith had to sort it out..
cheers
John

Its a Pedersoli. To be honest I wanted a 45/70...but I had a free slot for a .357...so when this came up I bought it:-)

Hi really liked the rolling block ,used to have a uberti ,my first firearm actually , fitted it with dioptre sights made it a lot more accurate much to the scorn of purists who think they should be able to be removed from a saddle in a hurry,
