@Marty Henry dies are coming from Australia for the 40-70 Sharps Straight
Bullets are cast and need powder coating.
A pass through sizer die needs to be made.
A Marbles tang sight is fitted
So when you do finally visit you can shoot the Hepburn.

It should be a bit like shooting a 38-55 because it's reasonably heavy

I am looking forward to that. Something to aim for so to speak
