Yah leadbutt. This is as close to getting to gun in one peice as I have ever got before. I'm going to get a go-nogo gauge before I do anything. I even have a box of old ammo that that says 30-USA. Not going to shoot the old ammo though. I still can't belive I found one. It's been about two years of looking the internet.
Last year I almost bought a 45-70 that someone chopped up to make a sporter out of it. Thinking maybe the bolt would work after a gun smith got done with it.
