Yep he's still the person to talk to . He will email you what he has as current inventory if you ask him . At least he still did that last year when I got a list from him . Unfortunately I didn't save the list or I could send it to you .

got the same list from him but over a year ago, so not sure if it is current. Sent him an email to see if they are still available.

What kind of issues? I just received an invoice from him on the parts I requested via paypal.

Can someone post Steve's email? I'd like to check in with him for some spare parts.

People complained of paying for parts and waiting month's for the part..there is a 4 page thread on dwb. That said he is the only guy other then doc that I know of with spare parts.

Update on the parts I ordered from Steve. Ordered pretty much all things that could get lost or wear out (breechplug, spring, endcap, hammer, etc). Placed the order through paypal on 7/1. Received my entire order today.

Not too shabby.

Update on my White in pursuit of an elk load. Decided to jump up my amount of powder and try and get some extra ummph if the accuracy was still there. It was!

Shot 90 gr of 3fg 777, a fiber wad, and the 460 gr bullshop NEx bullet. Got 1 inch groups at 50 yards (basically all touching) and a 3 inch group at 100. I can personally do no better with open sights, so I will probably use 90 gr of powder this September. That of course depends on how my neck feels tomorrow. Shot about 20 times off a bench and off sticks, so should be a good test of how my neck handles it. Feels OK so far.

That will be a great Elk load. Now, you just need an Elk! This seems to be the toughest part of the equation.

I have shot as much as 110 grains of 2f 777 and a BS 460. That was just too much recoil for me. But the accuracy was exceptionally good. Other then me. I found myself anticipating the shot and then the accuracy fell off.

That 90 grains should drop an elk with ease. Good luck in your hunt.
