My friends father inlaw is wanting me to reload some 45/70 govt. loads for him. Not a problume usaly, but here is my question.
He will be shooting it through his old sharps.
This is not a madern sharps, it is an original. still in great fiering order,well taken cared of all thease years.
I don't want to damage the rifle.
I was thinking soft lead cast bullets, I know it will cause leading. but if I use coper jaketed bullets could they not damage the rifle. being as old as it is?
It is in great shape. But i just want to make shure.
Any thoughts?
