Thanks for all of your replies! I told my boss the same things that you are telling me. Then I told him about the cva accurate v2 with around 1 moa and he said " CVA, can you find me something about $1000" and it hit me, he is trying to find a gun more expensive like the Remington but not the...

The best as in the most accurate and the most powerful out to 300 yards for hunting in Colorado? With iron sights.

Thanks for the info. The search for another barrel and stock continues!

Is the barrel of an 11-48 the same as an 1100 in a 20ga.?

what would you want in trade , other bullets or money? I have a T/C 357 mag and an H&R in 357 max.

I think the 45winmag would work but there goes cheap out the window if you can find them

hey i think i saw the same article. i cut off about 10 308's . then read 'you have to ream them out", i don't have a reamer. oops. measure it when you size them, the id is .429". a 44 mag speer shot cap fits just right about an eighth of an inch in the mouth of the case. that and 6.5-7 grains...

I've thought about sending my NEF in to have a 500s&w barrel fit to it . i would think it would out do even the Win 50-110 , 50-90 sharps??

the tree was in the edge of a pond, the water was the backstop. the slugs almost came out sideways and made a big splash. just be careful ! even if you have to cast a mold of your chamber to measure the neck. i think i have an NRA reloading book that has chamber blueprints . i'll try to find it...

i used a 000 buck to slug the barrel of my M1 Garand. it was worn out when i bought it . i've had it rebarreled with a new barrel and shoots a lot better. when i got it it wouldn't hit with in 6" of a 12" tree . now it shoots around 1" groups at 100 yards. back to work , be back at 11:30. bb

howdy, the only problem i had with doing .311 bullets is just because your barrel is .311 the chamber at the neck has not been enlarged. yes it will chamber but when you pull the trigger there is no room for the expanding neck and it holds on to the bullet and pressure shoots through the roof...

you are right. i pulled my 357& 44 out of the safe and went over both and other than the length same od contour. it feeds the 357/44 just like it was made to! went to my gunsmith he said $500 for barrel change, rechamber, reblue, and fit new stocks. my brother said go with it.

thanks for your help . my brother just picked up a winchester 92 in 44mag. now he wants to turn his marlin 44 into the 357/44 to go with the ruger blackhawk. this should be interesting at the least! i'm going to my neighborhood gunsmith today after work and see if he's done this before. i'll...

i'm new to thr but not new to the gun wolrd! i would like to know if anybody has had this conversion done from 44mag to 357/44 b&d? i have a ruger blackhawk and dies and wanted a carbine companion.
