If any of you think ANY of the rifles I have posted photos of, stated were mine, are NOT mine, you are welcome to do what "Miles Massey" welched on. Put up $10,000 cash money on the premise that they are not mine. Then plop your butt in a plane or car and come out to Pinedale WY where I (not Miles) actually lives.
When you get here you call me (unlike Miles I am in the book) and we'll set up a witnessed meet where you will put your $10,000 on table, I'll put mine there and you can examine any and all of the rifles "I don't own". If they are mine, I get your $10,000, if not you get mine.
Miles welched on this very same bet by never showing up here and, if he lived in Pinedale, I'd have a judgement against him already. Since he really lives in OK, I have not bothered to file suit there ...... yet. Now lets cut the crap and lies. If you have evidence supporting any of the lies by these trolls, put up or shit up. Otherwise let's get back to being civil adults with a common interest.

I don't mean to get mixed-up in this, but I can say that 45-70 shooter does own the 300H&H that has the nice wood that was posted in the his first post. I should know because I sold it to him. He took my half finished project and turned it into a beautiful rifle.

Having interacted with Larry Root and his multiple identities, it's possible you sold him a rifle, but unlikely he did anything with it beyond reselling it. Usually through one of his nefarious extended "layaway" pawnbroker schemes for which he's been kicked off Gunbroker several times.

Miles
Larry conferred with me several times during finishing of this rifle. He sent me photos of the work in progress as he was very excited with how things were turning out. After the rifle was finished he sent me more photos and described how the rifle was performing at the range(again, with photos).

In our interactions Larry Root has always been honest, knowledgeable and forthright.

Sure he has. His history on 24HCF and Gunbroker tell a radically different story. Certainly one in which he is the antithesis of your glowing adjectives.

Miles
I have no idea why you have an ax to grind, but I am just stating the facts as I have experienced them.

It is clear that you are looking to disparage Larry. It is also clear that you have been dead wrong regarding the 300H&H I sold him.

I am stating the facts of Larry's behavior for everyone to see and read. I have no need to disparage anyone, I only need to point to Larry's actions; the constant lying, posturing, pretending to be various people. I am not wrong in the least about the rifle you "sold" him. It is highly unlikely he could produce the rifle upon demand.

Unbelieveable........

Yes, it certainly is unbelievable that someone would ever willingly admit to any sort of business "transaction" with Larry Root.

LMAO !
Almost as "unbelievable" as the FACTS that:
1. Miles is a serial liar and has been outed over and over.
2. Miles welched on a $10,000 bet.
3. Miles claims to live in Pinedale WY, he really lives in Edmond OK.
4. Miles is not Miles he is a troll that goes by "Bricktop" and is Robert Brown.
5. Miles has NEVER documented any of his lies on this site or any others.
6. Miles threats are documented in the SCSO files here in Pinedale and were he ever here he would not be happy.
7. Miles chooses to be unaware that my record as a seller on numerous auction sites is A+ and, of course, cannot prove otherwise.
8. Miles has yet to figure out that eventually he will lie about, threaten and slander someone who rather than having pity for him (as I do) will take serious exception and react accordingly.

A skinny little wimp white boy from nowhere OK could have a bad experience were that to happen.

Did find "Bricktop"'s home. He must only come out at night....laffin



All done, just wanted to see how he was slandering Mr Brown, a real gentleman and a pleasure to have dealt with.

Taking the 300 H&H to the range next week with a camera. We'll get some pics of me and it ..... then we'll see what the serial liar has to say
(chuckle)

Remember what it looks like:





Back to ignore for the fake negro.

Well, I was really interested in this thread, until....I saw what a pissing match it had become. Take your dispute elsewhere, I was looking for good information on the 300 H&H for a single shot.

DLS, IF you read the whole thread and realized what a dirtbag "Miles" is, they you wouldn't be stomping off in a huff. You want information on 300 H&Hs ? I'll be happy to help as I have owned more than 20 over the years and have been handloading for the cartridge for over 30 years.
Miles has never owned one and DNS about the rifles or the cartridge.
In summary, it is hardly a "dispute", what it is, is a yellow, gutless, fool invading a fine site and trying to make trouble. People like him usually find the trouble they are looking for. He is at least intelligent enough not to try and bring his trouble to Pinedale (where I live and he does not).
Just in case you missed it here are three pictures of current 300 H&Hs/Flanged rifles.

A model 70 Bull Gun, a Ballard Rifle Company highwall (flanged) and a 721 AC.

You think that dirtbag has any ?









Do as you wish, but the TRUTH is clear.

BTW he also had the chance to "take the dispute elsewhere", he chose to bring it HERE.

So if you want to lecture someone, start with the one who instigated the whole mess.

In 1977 as a kid learning to shoot at H&H's ground,my instructor handed me a .300 H&H belted magnum express rifle to look at... love at first sight.... now want to build a 300 H&H single shot on a ruger # 1 action, may well use the flanged/rimmed case.
Can we stop the row going on here,and swap ideas on such a rifle...

Ross, there is no "row" going on here. We have a groups of adults who wish to discuss the 300 H&H AND we have one troll who stalks people he is inferior to all over the internet. Just put him on ignore and we adults can continue.
I have owned a regular High Wall (like a real old Winchester) in 300 H&H. It worked not at all. I spent money having it converted it to 300 flanged. It worked okay as long as the loads were mild. If you want a Single shot 300 H&H (no reason to go flanged) get a No.1 or an 1885 Browning as they both have spring driven extractors that work with high pressure cartridges. As the 1885 was never, insofar as I know, chambered for any belted magnum, the No. 1 is the easiest route. You can buy one new from Ruger or easily convert a 30-06 (as mine is).
As an aside, the 300 flanged was designed for double rifles that have much larger extractors and a great deal more leverage than any lever activated single shot.

The carpet in your house changes alot that's for sure

Hard to believe how dumb some people are. I don't live in a single wide with one 8x10 K Mart carpet. Actually the rifles were all photographed in my basement where, in the area where the gunsafes are there is carpet removed from one upstairs bedroom when it was redone. The lighter carpet was removed from the living room when it was redone and now is in my reloading room.
As I said before, put up your $10,000 and come to Pinedale. Heck I'll even reimburse you your two way plane ticket when you can prove that I not "Miles" is the sad sack liar.Somehow I doubt I'll ever see either of you........ (chuckle)
Say hello to Mrs. Palin for me as, unlike Miles, I voted for her.

Those damned rugs again:


300 H&H 721 updated with 700 Classic stock.
270 WCF M70 "last of the New Havens"
Ithaca 10 bore and Sauer drilling

Jesus man just mentioned carpets and you flip out, you probably shouldn't be around guns.... By the way the carpet is horrendous... Besides arent you in Florida right now? So be a waste of money for anyone to to pinedale to meet you..

Agree on your opinion of the carpet ..... that's why it was replaced BUT it nicer to walk on in the basement than cold concrete.
Nope, not flipping out, just tired of people who don't know the history of the liar troll defending him while he is chasing anyone he decides to, from site to site to site and telling lie after lie after lie. I could list his endless lies but I'd probably get yelled at by the moderator.
Yup I'm in FL but "bricktop" claimed to have visited Pinedale while I wasn't there so I thought you could do the same.
Be back in May, a nicer time to travel from AK to WY anyway.
Give me a few weeks notice so I can clean up the bunkhouse for you.
Merry Christmas to you and yours.
