Attachment 42273Attachment 42274Attachment 42275Attachment 42276That is a really nice Hepburn rifle with nice photos. I do not if I should have posted the following information and details because it is not black powder - but black powder could be used.

I have an original Winchester Hi-Wall action, with original Winchester double set triggers. The hammer is the later coil spring type and the new (4140 steel) breech block with small firing pin hole came from the late Ben Rice (Cherry Point NJ). the barrel is Darr and is 1 3/4 inch across the flats chambered for 32-40 Win.

I use a Hoch nose pour mould and the bullets are used in the order they are cast, they are not sized, lubed by your fingers. Each bullet is breech seated with the tool (photo) and only one single cartridge case (index to barrel) is used with 14 grs of smokeless 4227 and a Rem pistol primer. There appear to be alot of advantages in using a lathe turned nose pour bullet mould as the base is always perfect and you do not have to run the bullet through a sizer.
