Taylors emailed me yesterday....maybe sometime in July....
If true that's not that bad really.
Hopefully he maybe also able to give you an update mid June as to whether things are still on track.
Good Luck,
Dan

Check out Hickock45 shooting the High Wall in 45-70. At about 16 minutes in he shoots some black powder rounds with 500 gr lead....holy smokes that's quite a round.
My 45 Colt will be nothing like this, however it will look the same pretty much. Should pump a 250 gr bullet down range fairly decent. Beautiful 1885 replica rifle for sure.

thanks for the link .... first time I've ever seen a video testing a High Wall .... with your loads I tend to believe it will "pump a 250 gr bullet down range fairly decent"

Actually I've seen the video quite a few times. Hickock45 has probably been the inspiration for the majority of my firearms. Now if I could only get a range like his I would be good to go. LOL

From his early videos you can easiliy see how it kept getting better over time.
