I have had this for a while but am now just posting it up. I am in the process of casting 405 grain bullets for it and will start to reload for it this week.
The rifle is a nice model 1888 with the rod bayonet. Very good condition and very solid. Beautiful bore and the action is in excellent solid condition. The stock is is a field replacement with a unit marking.
I am really looking forward to shooting this. If any one has some favorite loads for 405 grain bullets using modern powder that would be low pressure for this old girl please let me know. Thanks.
