Swedish M67 Rolling Block
Well it took a long time, but I finally got a rolling block rifle. This is a Swedish M67 dated 1870 in 12.7x44R centerfire. Someone made a new tip for the cleaning rod. Can't wait to shoot it. Just need to make/get some brass for it. Big heavy rifle!

Lovely ol rifle you have there. I love the banded cartridge rifles. The Spencer rifle and rolling block are my two favorites. Never cared much for any of the carbines except for the springer trap door. Thanks for sharing! Range report coming hopefully?

Thanks for the kind words. I have several trapdoors, but this is my first rolling block. I am working on making some brass from .348 Winchester. Hopefully I will have some good cases soon.
