New Rifle
Some of you already know and some even had a hand in it. I have a new MK85. It is literally a NEW mk85 stainless steel. I got it from a guy over at modern muzzleloader.
I have wanted a MK85 since I bought my BK92. Well I got news that it was shipped Yesterday. I can't wait to try out the paper Patched bullets in it. I might have to order another 50 pounds of lead to make sure I have enough to keep all my guns shooting. Ron

I'm curious in what you come up with Ron. Tom is lending me his Wolverine, and what you come up with should work in mine too.
Keep us posted on your progress. Are you going to go with the Williams FP sight? How about a front sight? I was going to go with the stock FO sight it comes with. It has a pretty small bead.

The cost of the pure lead is 110.00 to my door. That puts my bullets at .12 to .15 cents. With paper I am probably still under .20 cents a round. Ron

Glad you got it on the way Ron. Its nice to find one that hasn't been fired or is still NIB. They are getting pretty scarce now. Once in a blue moon i find one at the gun shows and i will "rescue" them if the price is right. I like finding them a good home.
There is another show coming up next weekend but i dread fighting the crowd that will be there. I haven't seen the crowds this bad since the ClinTOON administration.
