. I finally found one of these the other day. Browning 1885 in "Treinta-Treinta", as we would say here in South Texas. These Mirokou 1885's have become a real favorite of mine. Going to try it out with some Blue Dot loads I got from "Bartsche" on thursday. dxr    Happiness is a tight group | ||

Congratulation dxr! I´m reloading also a 165grs copper plated lead bullet with 18grs of N110 with the same results. Single shot´s and especial the High Wall, are my favourit rifles. From time to time, I´m thinking about a custom made rifle, based on a rebarreled Ruger #1. I´m thinking about an "Bavarian" round, the 8,15x46R. But I´m also thinking about the .405WCF #1-H. At the moment, I don´t know. Maybe, I should ask my wife?  Martin | |||

Ahhh ! I just noticed you are on the other side of the pond. I've used a lot of H&N match pellets in my air rifles. Did not know they made bullets as well. I don't think there is any distribution in the US on them. Too bad, a 165 plated would be nice ! Chris Happiness is a tight group | |||

Chris, send a e-mail to H+N. Maybe, they can tell you an dealer in USA. I mean, I don´t really know it, but Reimer Johannsen, the Mauser Magnum maker, have a bureau in USA. Here in Germany, he´s a great reloading equipment and bullet dealer. I´m buying nearly all at Johannsen. Maybe, he can help you. Martin | |||

I've never seen one in .30-30. How rare is that chambering?? "Bitte, trinks du nicht das Wasser. Dahin haben die Kuhen gesheissen." | |||

Martin, that 8.15X46R is a nice cartridge for target & fun shooting. So is the .32/40, which is very similar in performance. "Bitte, trinks du nicht das Wasser. Dahin haben die Kuhen gesheissen." | |||

That is the gun I've wanted. Would rechamber to 30/40 Krag and be very happy. Currently hunt a 30/40 in a Ruger #3 and a 260 Rem in a low wall. Both shoot well but the low wall is easier to carry. | |||
