impressive penetration ... one of our sons literally signed the papers yesterday to purchase 26 acres of land located 5 minutes from our home .... as this is being typed, he is out there the first time with his concealed carry to fire a few rounds .... we hope to develop a 200 yard range out there .... we hope to be able to setup a bunch of steel targets of various sizes and at various distances

I just watched Quigley Down Under and Shiloh Rifle Mfg was credited with building the rifle in the movie. Cool. Made in USA.

I have one and had two at one point but sold the 45-70. I still have a Long Range express with extra fancy wood and other extras. I use to shoot it in long range competition but I havent shot it in about 10 years. I went to the factory to pick it up years ago. The Bryan Family was very nice to let me come and see there factory. I wanted to sell it but the wife says no way so its in the safe to pass on to whoever because I have no siblings to give it to. But when it comes to an 1874 buffalo rifle theres none better. Al

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......
