Sharps Borchardt 1878 in 30-40 Krag
I bought this as an action just because it was marked "JP Lower Denver" on the receiver top. I had it barreled in 30-40 Krag and stocked it with a decent piece of wood. It's off to be blued. I'm pretty happy with the results. I have a companion rifle in 405 Winchester.

Is that a carbon barrel?

I'd say that wood is several steps above decent! Beautiful rifle!

A great cartridge choice (I have five of them!) on a very nice action (sadly, I have none of those). A great looking rifle. Regards, Bill
