41 Swiss Vetterli 10.4X38mm center fire brass cases and customized cast bullets
Feed your old beauty, make her and yourself happy again! Newly made 41 Swiss brass cases from brand new Starline 50 Alaskan brass cases:cut,annealed with AMP annealer,formed using Lee 41 Swiss full length sizing die,trimed with case length 1.525”( Observed that feeding reliably with loaded ammo OAL length between 2.180“-2.220”, so with 0.005'' extra length for possible cast bullet variation, instead of 1.520'', easily trimed off the extra 0.005'' brass if you don't like it ), cleaned off lube then annealed once more, tested to extract and eject reliably. Ready for reloading. 9$ each+shipping , minimum 12 pcs. Have some hard cast bullets cast with customized heeled bullet mold designed by myself (http://accuratemolds.com/bullet_deta...bullet=43-310F) to go with those cases if you desire, all lubed with Alox and sized with .429'' Lee bullet sizer, lubed with Alox again ( tested free of leading, even after more than 100 shots, no leading observed: yes, Vetterli is so fascinating, I did extensively loading test with more than 1000 rounds through my M78 and M69/71 and then designed my own bullet for her and am thinking of designing a paper patch bullet. ) , tested to be working quite well : check those 5-shot and 10-shot groups shot at 40 meters indoor range with 1869/71 Vetterli rifle). Ready for reloading. 0.5$ each+shipping, sorry, 3 bullets per case ordered limited due to limited bullets quantity, no place to cast bullets during winter time, should be able to cast more bullets after winter. With my cast bullets and Lee 41 Swiss full length sizing die sized brass cases, you can hand seat the bullet, then use Lee 41 Swiss seating die with seating stem removed to give the loaded round a very firm and consistent crimp at the first groove from the bottom ( the seater will clear the bullet instead of the case mouth), by feeling that the case mouth brass is crashed a little bit ( it is ok that the bullet might be turned by hand inside the case mouth after crimping, but it would be firmly seated, won't be pulled out by hand),don't go too much,too much crimp might cause the case mouth bumping up too much and you might encounter difficulty to chamber especially with those Vetterlis with tighter chamber. Photo 5 & 6 show that the right one was hand seated before crimping, the left one was properly crimped, and the abovementioned cast bullet. FYI only, use it at your own risk: I found using the recommended charge from the internet of 11 grains of Trail Boss to be around 2200 fps and kicks hard,eventually I reduced the charge to 7 grains of Trail Boss to achieve around 1400 fps, very close to Vetterli designed velocity and very mild and pleasant kicks, no grease cookies, no wads needed. I rendered that the 11 grains of Trail Boss charge was gained from improperly reloaded rounds not using heeled bullets and not getting proper crimp. I did tests with Tripple 7 also, found the data on the internet is way too much also, I got 1900 fps muzzle velocity reducing the charge to 24 grains by weight of Tripple 7, which is only half full of case capacity!I did not go further experimenting with Tripple 7, cause I got very good results with Trail Boss, and I did not enjoy cleaning the bore after every range trip burning Tripple 7.

ANTIQUE SHINY .455/.476 Webley WG Army Retailed by Esteemed John Rigby of London
Selling because cash is tight and I have another - don't miss your chance to add this beautiful investment to your collection. This superb Webley WG Army specimen was made by P. Webley & Sons circa 1896 chambered in .476 Eley and .455 Webley, and sold by the famed John Rigby & Co. in London. Established in 1775, John Rigby & Co remains to this day a staple of the fine firearms market. Their role in this piece's history adds even further to collector value. These revolvers were very popular private purchases among sportsmen and higher ranking officers around the turn of the 20th century up through WW1 as reliable, accurate, and elegant handguns. With an impressive 6" barrel and mirror-bore rifling, this is a collector's or target shooter's dream. I can add a box of 50 factory new Fiocchi Heritage .455 Webley rounds with purchase of the revolver if you have a PAL. If you don't want these rounds, take $100 off asking price. As a pre-1898 antique, this can be owned and used without any registration or headaches. Visually this revolver retains most of its original shiny dark blue finish with scattered minor loss from 130 years living. The trigger, hammer, ejector, cylinder release mechanism, and hinge screw have a shiny silver "in the white" finish giving a proud and bold contrast. The original checkered square bottom hardwood grips are solid, showing some minor dings and a tiny chip on the right. Sharply stamped "WG Army Model" on the top strap with calibers ".455/.476" Webley and Eley, and the W&S winged bullet logo on the left of the frame. The barrel is hand etched with the retailer address "JOHN RIGBY & Co. 72 ST JAMES'S St LONDON S.W.". The serial 13XXX places manufacture in the mid-late 1890s and makes this one of the most modern antiques you can get. The bore retains shiny, strong rifling with scarce patches of wear. The action functions excellent in single and double action, leaving nothing to be desired. The cylinder indexes and locks up with almost no wiggle for reliable firing and the timing is excellent. Comes with FRT antique papers and repro leather Webley holster. Can come with box of Fiocchi .455 Webley ammo if you have a PAL. Call any time or local meetup Calgary or Vancouver depending where I am. Ships Canada No PAL, 18+ Check my ads for more antiques! I make no claims about the safety of shooting ANY antique. Check with your gunsmith! (Tags: England, Britain, French, MAS, German, Reichs, American, Canadian, Dominion, .44, .45, .450, .476, ACP, Auto, Boxer, Kynoch, Smith & Wesson, Remington)

Please text anytime 6476871484. Fully functional double action revolver in perfect condition. Compact pocket revolver high quality and can fit in the palm of your hand.. No PAL required. Comes with FRT paperwork. Reloadable ammo is available but sold separately. Iver Johnson "American Bull Dog", .38 RF short and long Revolver Iver Johnson was one of the most prolific makers of pocket revolvers in America, from 1871 to nearly the present. One of the earliest makers of bulldog-type, double action revolvers, the Iver Johnson American Bull Dog is well known and in demand. These were made by Johnson's and the relief grip showing the American eagle on a shield is typical of Johnson's ware. ​ This one is in very fine to excellent condition, with 99% original nickel. The action is accurate and strong, and the cylinder indexes and locks properly with no play. The bore of the 2 1/2-inch barrel is good with strong rifling throughout. The black hard-rubber grips are excellent and undamaged. SN 2407, excellent overall. History & Background Iver Johnson (1841-1895) was a Norwegian gunsmith who came from Bergen to America in 1863. He found work immediately at Ethan Allen's factory in Worcester, Mass. where he met Martin Bye. Johnson worked at Allen's through the civil war years, as demand for firearms was high, and work was plentiful. By 1871 Johnson and Bye had decided to venture out on their own and founded Johnson Bye & Co. in Worcester, moving to Fitchburg by 1891. In 1883 Martin Bye left the company, selling his interest to Iver. The company name was changed to its most famous form, "Iver Johnson's Arms & Cycle Works, Fitchburg, Mass.", a name it would retain until the outbreak of the First World War. Iver Johnson did not only produce a large variety of firearms, they were also famous for their excellent quality bicycles and motorcycles. The company would remain in business until 1993. The name was "revived" in 2006 and the brand is still used today.
