[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1143905, member: 25383"] I maybe all wet here, but just a thought. Several years back three or four guys I know bought Ruger #1's in 44 mag. They then ran a .444 Marlin reamer thru the barrel. Worked well. Yet another guy decided he wanted a bolt gun, and of course it didn't work so well. Seems like he ended up using reworked 57mm Mauser brass, but 30-06 brass would also work. The Mauser brass only needs expanding and fire forming, as the length would be pretty close from the get go. So pretty much anything from 6mm Remington to 7.92 Mauser would work. Be nice if somebody sold the brass in a basic form. gary [/QUOTE]
