Ijust wanted to take the time to write you to let youknow how impressed I am with your press. First, let me

say that I purchased a [competitor’s] press a while backand have had nothing but problems. These are not hugeproblems, but a problem is a problem is a problem. Huh,it is at the factory as I write this letter. Honestly, I havespent a bunch of money on that press: dies, shellplatesand other items and I am over it. I was so frustrated Idecided to break down and get a Dillon.

Over the years of reloading I have always used single-stage presses. Here lately, I have been needing to upgradeto a progressive. I have always been told, “Get a Dillon,spend the money, you won’t regret it.” Well, you workwith what you have, money wise and you buy what youcan afford. Bunk!

After the headaches, downtime and sheer frustration,the additional cost for a Dillon is chicken feed. I am anold welder/fabricator/machinist and I know QUALITYwhen I see it. The 550B is “Top Notch.” The parts all fittogether great. It is a “tight” machine and very, verysmooth. The handle and linkage are tight and fit togetherwell. Overall, I am very impressed with the machine. Ijust like everything about it. Let me say this in closing: Iam SOLD on Dillon products. You have a customer andsupporter forever.

Michael W. Trentham – Clinton, TNThanks, Michael! It’s always great to hear positive feed-back from happy customers.

In November 2014 my base crank assembly broke whilereloading. I can’t tell you how many rounds I’ve put

through this press, but it’s a lot. After calling into Dillonand telling what had happened, in two days I received areplacement part. No questions, no charge, just here itwas. Having grown up in the 50s and 60s, your customerservice reminded me of those wonderful years. Thanks,Dillon! I’ll keep spreading the word about how the Amer-ican way is still alive and well. Keep up the great work.

Thomas L. Pruett III, US Army (Ret.) – Kamiah, ID Thomas, the customer’s right to service was one of thefundamental “rights” Mike Dillon wrote into his originalbusiness model for Dillon Precision. I believe it’s the onethat separates us from the rest of the pack.

The Wyatt Earp article in the January 2015 edition wasvery interesting and extremely well written – one of

the main reasons why I like your magazine so much. Fred Dickmeyer – Tampa, FL

Fred, one of the major perks of my position as editor isgetting to read Brian’s articles before anyone else. I guessI’m selfish that way!

By Peter CarolineSeeing as how my personal firearms inventory

has not (quite yet) approached ten percent of mynet worth, I felt quite confident in heading for LasVegas this year, looking for strange and wondrousnew products. I was not disappointed.

Ruger (www.ruger.com) has brought backtheir .22 Charger pistol in both takedown andone-piece configurations. Both feature a stan-dard A2-style grip that can be changed for yourfavorite MSR grip. Ruger was also showing anew .22 Bearcat with sights that are now fullyadjustable. This slick little kit gun is available instainless or blue. Ruger’s GP100 Match Champi-on, introduced last year, is now available with anadjustable rear sight. For the firearms fashion-istas, there was a new 22/45 Lite, with a cutaway

Electric Blue barrel and upper, with a top rail inaddition to adjustable sights and, of course, thebarrel was threaded.

European American Armory(www.eaacorp.com) was showing a polymer Wit-ness 1911, a very handsomely done iteration ofthe classic design, with an ambi safety and anaccessory rail.

Over at the SIG Sauer booth(www.sigsauer.com), I spotted their new P22010mm pistol, available in both stainless andNitron finishes. With an 8-round magazine, this isone very serious piece of heavy ordnance forhunting or self-defense.

At one point, I stopped back at the Dillonbooth, and Mark Pixler told me, “You definitelywant to get over to the Kingston Armory booth

(www.kingstonarmory.com) …they have .22 LRGarands and M14s! Needless to say, I moved outsmartly and, sure enough, there were somebeautifully crafted replications of these classics,with carefully disguised Ruger 10/22 actions and10-round rotary magazines. I’m told that theserecreations are just a bit lighter than the origi-nals, but not noticeably so. I’m a sucker for .22s,and the budget will suffer!

Speaking of classics, MKS Supply(www.mkssupply.com) was showing exactrecreations of the WWII Inland M1 and M1A1.30 caliber Carbines. These are beautifullymade and even reproduce the original produc-tion’s cartouche marks in the wood. They werealso showing a 1911A1 Government Model,authentic right down to the lanyard loop and

brown-checkered plastic grip panels.In the wheelgun spectrum, I spotted a very

pretty Damascus-pattern Baron Custom-decorat-ed .22 Magnum at the North American Armsbooth (www.northamericanarms.com). And,great news for the budget-minded…you can nowown Korth’s (www.korthusa.com) new 9mm ParaSky Marshall revolver for right around $1,000,far less than previous Korth offerings. Dan Wes-son, which is now owned by CZ (www.cz-usa.com) is actually making a revolver, theModel 715 stainless .357 Magnum, once again.

For you Tavor owners out there, the IWIbooth (www.iwi.us.com) was displaying somevery handsomely appointed tactical nylon cases,with Molle pouches for extra mags, handguns,9mm conversion kit, etc. The cases come in

Dillon’s RL 550B has long worn the title of “TheWorld’s Most Versatile Progressive Reloader,” and

stripping it down to its most basic form – Dillon’s BL(Basic Loader) 550 – adds a whole new dimensionof versatility for the shooter/hunter who needs tofeed several rifles.

The BL 550 is essentially an RL 550B without theautomatic priming and powder systems. Capable ofloading over 160 calibers – just like the RL 550B – ituses any manufacturer’s standard 7/8” x 14 reloadingdies. It’s priced comparably with other manufacturers’turret presses; yet unlike them, it’s fully upgradeableto Dillon’s Progressive RL 550B loader!

The interchangeable toolhead (Page 15) makes itquick, easy and inexpensive to change calibers. Forexample, if you load .30-06 for elk, .243 for deer and.22-250 for coyotes, you don’t even have to changethe shellplate. You simply pull two pins and swap thetoolhead with your .30-06 dies to another toolheadwith your .22-250 or .243 dies in less than 30 sec-onds! The additional toolheads are $22.95 each, or$20.95 each if you buy three or more – if you load forseveral rifles it’s a no-brainer! Once you get your diesadjusted, you’ll never have to re-set them.

A powder measure adapter (bottom right photo) isavailable if you want to use a manual measure thatyou already own. Or, if you want to weigh everypowder charge you load, it’s easy – you can use apowder trickler with the powder die/funnel assemblythat comes with the BL 550.

CV-2001 – The Industry Standard Dillon’s CV-2001 Vibratory Case Cleaner is the

largest in the industry. Its 12-1/2 quart bowl capacitywill allow you to polish up to 1,300 .38/.357 or 550.30-06 cases per hour.

Not only is our capacity greater, but our motor islarger in horsepower, internally cooled, thermallyprotected, and turns on precision ball bearings. Thisis no “hobby” machine!

The bowl and base are constructed of7/32” thick injection molded high-strengthpolypropylene which is impact and abra-sion resistant.

Case/Media SeparatorsAfter we sold thousands of our famous

first generation FL-2000 case cleaners, cus-tomers who had purchased them beganasking us to address the problem of sepa-rating the cleaned and polished brass fromthe cleaning media.

We knew from the beginning that thesimplest method of separating would be arotating squirrel cage, but we had to find adesign we could manufacture economical-ly. Our problem was that it had to be BIG –big enough to handle the entire load of theFL-2000 series case cleaners.

The solution was an injection moldedreversible part. Simple, and it works great.

Our device is large,10” x 14”, and will hold morethan 1,600 .38 Special cases. Itsits on a large media collectiontub that measures 18” x 22”.The tub keeps the mess off thefloor and bench.

It’s fast – so fast it willremove media from 1500rounds of .223 brass in a matterof seconds.

Limited Work Space?Dillon’s introducing the new CV-750 heavy duty

Vibratory Case Cleaner for those with limited space.This new case cleaner uses the same motor as theCV-2001 and is every bit as tough – just more com-pact. To accompany the CV-750, the CM-500 doesthe same job as the larger CM-2000 Case/Media Sep-arator; and, like the CV-750, handles just about halfthe capacity of the larger unit.

Although scaled down in size, these two pieces ofequipment are every bit as tough as their full-sizedcounterparts. We used the same materials in theirconstruction and designed them to work just as hard– and do it in a more compact area!

Super 1050/RL 1050 Short Trim Die Toolhead

For short rifle cartridges like the .300 Blackout,you must use a Short Trim Die Toolhead when

using a Dillon Rapid Trim 1500 Case Trimmerduring case preparation. Otherwise, the toolheadis too thick to facilitate the correct case length.This specialty toolhead enables you to correctlytrim and prepare short rifle cases on your 1050.(NOTE: the 1050 toolhead stand is not included.)

Until now, reusing military brass, with its crimpedprimer pockets, has been a tedious task. The Dil-

lon solution is a remarkably simple device that boltsto your bench and allows you to swage the primerpockets with speed and ease. The case is supportedfrom the inside, so you won’t be tearing the rims offthe brass. A tool steel, hardened swage rod (easy tochange from large to small primers) simply rolls thecrimp away. No reaming is necessary. Our uniquecompound cam leverage system assures not onlyease of operation, but perfect alignment with eachand every round. Sound simple? It is and it works.What’s more, it’s inexpensive. The Super Swage 600comes with large and small swage rods. 6.8 SPC Back-Up Rod L13-62124 $20.959mm Adaptor L13-62168 14.95.40 S&W Adaptor L13-62169 14.95

The RT 1500 is used just likea standard size die. The big

difference is that while you arepushing the case into the die tosize it, an electric motor drivinga carbide cutter at 4500 RPM istrimming the case to length.Chips are drawn off through avacuum manifold that clampsto the outside of the specialsize/trim die. (Vacuum cleanerand hose not included.) The RT1500 is equipped with a quick-

disconnect power cord; and itcan be used on any standardreloader, single stage or pro-gressive.

Performance Series

“Wild Bunch” 1911 Holster & Mag PouchThis holster/mag pouch was designed in

a joint effort by World Cowboy ActionShooting Champion Gene “Evil Roy”Pearcey and World Fast Draw ChampionBob Mernickle when SASS introduced the“Wild Bunch” category for CowboyAction Shooting.

When these two champions put theirheads together, they created a holsterand mag pouch that look like they weremade at the turn of the century, yet fea-ture state-of-the-art speed and accuracy.The holster is hard molded so as not tolose its shape even after thousands ofdraws. It spaces the pistol’s grip frame

away from your body so you’ll get a fullcombat grip, and the holster includes theT-nut lock system to ensure that it staysin place during a draw.

The mag pouch spaces the maga-zines so when you grab one mag, thesecond isn’t in your way; above thebelt line so the belt doesn’t interferewith the draw; and at the max depthrequired by the sport – and no more –so you’ll get a full grip and the abilityto index with your forefinger for arapid mag well insert.1911 Holster L13-19947 $139.95Mag Pouch L13-19946 44.95

We’re selling the five-stitch version, which has extrastitch lines to make the belt more rigid vertically in

order to better support holsters, magazine pouches andother gear. This belt is a favorite with law enforcement,military personnel, firefighters, paramedics, etc. Note:The 1.75” belt works best with BDUs or jeans.

Sizing/Depriming DieOur sizing/depriming dies feature a unique “floating

decap assembly” with a snap spring that throws the spentprimer off the pin and eliminates the problem of primer“draw back” that often occurs when decapping militarybrass. The primary feature of Dillon’s size die design – thelong, tapered carbide ring with a radiused opening –remains unchanged.

That radiused opening, and its importance to progressivereloading, is one of the reasons why our seat and crimp diesare better. We found a way of manufacturing these dies thathas enabled us to make the lead-in radius even bigger! Thebigger radius makes progressive loading with our equipmenteven smoother – but that’s still only a part of the story.

Bullet Seating DieOur new quick-disassembly seat die allows the user to

disassemble and clean the seat die without losing adjustment.In this manner, bullet lube and shavings can be quicklyremoved from the die, thereby guaranteeing a constant seat-ing depth. We’ve incorporated a “flip-flop” seating stem and aclip that enables you to remove the die insert and change theseating stem from round nose to semi-wadcutter withoutunscrewing a seating stem out of the die body. We’ve alwaysincluded both types of seating stems, but the new double-ended design makes it a simple matter to remove a pin,reverse the seating stem, make any minor seating depthadjustments that may be necessary and go on loading in afraction of the time it used to take.

Crimp DieWe’ve made it easy for you to remove the die insert for

cleaning without having to change the critical crimp adjust-ment. Once your crimp die is set for the proper amount ofcrimp, you’ll never have to change it. This is especially goodnews for all of you who load lead bullets! Before, you had tounscrew the die from the toolhead and disassemble the die inorder to remove any bullet lube or lead residue. Then, youhad to start from square one to re-adjust the crimp. Thosedays are over. All you have to do now is pop a clip and thedie insert drops into your hand for cleaning.

NOTE: All Dillon Pistol Die sets include our sizer/ decap die,seat die and a separate crimp die. (Taper crimp for autos; accu-crimp for revolvers.)

Dillon Three-Die Rifle Die Sets include a sizing/depriming die, a bullet seating die and a taper crimpdie. Dillon Two-Die Rifle Die Sets include asizing/depriming die and a seat/crimp die.

Sizing/Depriming DieThe sizing/depriming die is full-length, to mini-

mum tolerances, sizing cases down to function insemi- and full-automatic firearms. We strongly sug-gest that a headspace case gage be used to correctlyadjust the size die.

For high volume users, such as commercialreloaders, law enforcement agencies, and highpower or service rifle competitors, we also offer .223and .308 die sets with a full-length carbide sizingdie. Lubrication is still required, but the increasedscratch resistance and die longevity of carbide are ofgreat benefit to these groups of users.

The depriming assembly includes a carbideexpander ball for “squeak-free,” effortless neckexpansion. This expander ball is located in the mid-dle of the depriming stem to take advantage of supe-rior initial leverage for easier extraction.

In the event of a stuck case, the design of thedepriming assembly allows it to function as a stuckcase remover.

Bullet Seating DieOur bullet seating die is internally designed to keep

the bullet straight throughout the seating process.Once properly adjusted, the only measurable runoutwill be that which is inherent in the bullet.

Taper Crimp DieThe taper crimp die is also specially configured to

center both the case neck and the case body, therebyaligning the entire cartridge for a more uniformcrimp. Dillon Rifle Dies are designed to meet themore rigid requirements for both accuracy and preci-sion demanded by today’s marksman.

A taper crimp die is preferred for loading ammu-nition intended to be used in semiautomatic firearmswith detachable box magazines, and in lever-actionfirearms with tubular magazines.

TV Western fans will appreciate Chiappa’s(www.chiappafirearms.com) new Model 1892Mare’s Leg, available in both .44 Magnum and .45Colt, with a choice of 9” or 12” barrels.

The Browning booth (www.browning.com)had an amazing array of 1911-22s in both stan-dard and shorter barrel lengths, several differentcolors and even one with a threaded barrel.Someone referred to that particular model as theSWTF (Sleeps With The Fishes) Special. Next tothis display of rimfire loveliness was Browning’snew 1911-380…same size as the 1911-22, butchambered for the John M. Browning-designed.380 ACP cartridge. Two things thatimpressed me…an ambidextrous safety, and aslide that is actually easy to operate.

Speaking of John M. Browning designs, remem-ber those neat little “hammerless” .32s and .380s

that Colt used to make prior to WWII? Well, theColt booth (www.colt.com) was displaying a park-erized and “U.S. PROPERTY”-marked Model 1908.380 General Officers Pistol that will be part of alimited edition coming out soon. There will alsobe a model in polished blue. Yes, they will bepricey, but far less than a NIB original.

On the subject of .380s, Taurus (www.Tau-rusUSA.com) has once again stretched the bound-aries of the human imagination with a little itemcalled the Curve…billed as “The world’s first andonly firearm engineered to fit the unique contoursof your body.” A light and laser are built into theframe, which has an attached belt clip for IWBcarry. There is no conventional sight, as such, butwhite “cross hairs” incised on the back of theslide. Oh…it’s currently available only in right-handed configuration; we sinistrally-inclined folkwill have to wait and fidget.

compact, due to finish issues, I had heard. But theyhave apparently solved the problem, and promiseto have these neat little numbers ready to go.

Last year, Remington (www.remington.com)created quite a stir with a 9mm Para recap oftheir 1920s-vintage Model 51. The prototypesworked well enough to garner some enthusiasticreviews; the production models…not so much.So, back to the drawing boards. A revamped andpresumably reliable R51 will soon be available,and I will have one to test.

Some time back, I reviewed the Boberg ArmsCorp. (www.bobergarms.com) 9mm pistol, aunique design with a magazine that feeds from therear. This year, Boberg is showing a similarly con-figured pistol in .45 ACP. I look forward to somerange time with this one.

It would seem that nowadays, everyoneexcept maybe General Mills and Pfizer are mak-ing 1911s. Because they sell. The latest that Ispotted at the Show was at the Caracal booth

(www.caracal.ae.com). The boys from Abu Dhabihave actually come up with a very nicely craftedbobtail Commander-sized specimen with all thebells and whistles. In addition, there’s anotherbrand called MAC (www.Eagleimportsinc.com)with a similarly configured 4.25” barrel 1911,called the Bobcut.

If you win the PowerBall lottery and have aclose relative at the BATFE, you might be able toown an original Mauser Model 712 Schnellfeuer-pistole. This selective-fire beauty had a 20-roundmagazine and on full-auto, could empty thatmag in one second. Gletcher Air Guns(www.gletcherguns.com) was displaying a selec-tive-fire, CO2-powered replica that fires .177caliber pellets or BBs at 361 fps. Bitte, schiessensie nicht deinen auge!

I have been attending the SHOT Show since1982, and worn out a lot of shoe leather. This yearwas the best one yet. And I suspect that next yearwill bring many new surprises.

44 CLASSIC FIREARMS: The Ruger .44 Magnum Semiauto Carbines

By John MarshallThe .44 Magnum cartridge, when fired in a light

carbine, is a marvelous short-range game-getter. It’sespecially effective on deer, black bear, feral hogsand the javelina of the Southwest. However, as Ican personally attest, firing a light lever action orsingle shot rifle in that caliber will leave you with abruised shoulder that you’ll feel for weeks. Wayback in 1960, however, Bill Ruger, working closelywith famed designer Harry Sefried, found the solu-tion: a .44 Magnum self-loader in which the actionabsorbed much of the recoil, making it more com-fortable to fire and offering quick follow-up shots.Weighing in at 5 pounds and 12 ounces, it washandy to pack and quick to bring into action.Although most folks today are not aware of it, thiswas only the first of two distinct models that hadquite different actions.

The first model [top photo] was introduced inthis manner: “America’s newest game rifle…Provenon the plains of Africa, the RUGER ‘Deerstalker’carbine is a technological breakthrough for thebenefit of American sportsmen…proven not onlyon Whitetails in North America, but on Leopard,Hyena, Wart Hog, Topi and many other species inAfrica…developed to provide the sportsman withthe best possible rifle for hunting deer and othermedium-sized game in brush country.”

Bill Ruger did indeed personally test this gun ona variety of African game, including killing a leop-ard with one shot at 100 yards. Accounts and pho-tos were extensively used in Ruger advertising.

The carbine measured 36-3/4” overall. The 18-1/4” barrel (later lengthened to 18-1/2”) had 12rifling grooves with a 1 turn in 38” twist. Thereceiver was machined from chrome-molybdenumsteel. The tubular magazine held four rounds, and

was filled through an opening in the bottom of thereceiver, just forward of the trigger guard. It used ashort-stroke piston to drive an internal slide thatrotated the bolt to unlock the breech from thereceiver. The bolt remained open after the last shotwas fired, and could be released with a latchahead of the trigger guard. There was a cross-boltsafety in front of the trigger that locked both thesear and the internal hammer. Lyman front andrear sights were standard, and the top of thereceiver was drilled and tapped to accept Weaver-type scope mounts.

The standard carbine stock was oil-finishedAmerican walnut. International (full length) andSporter style stocks were offered as options. Both ofthese had sling swivels and pistol grip caps, andwere checkered at the wrist and forend.

Retail prices in the 1960 catalog were $108 forthe standard, $118 for the sporter, and $128 forthe international model. The guns themselvesbegan to be distributed in September 1961. It’sworth noting that a virtual lookalike clone of thiscarbine in .22 Long Rifle caliber was offered in1964, the Ruger 10/22 carbine, which continuesin Ruger’s lineup to this day.

The initial name “Deerstalker” was not used onthe carbine for long. It seems that the Ithaca GunCompany had a “Deerslayer” shotgun, andaccording to Ruger, “…to avoid any hard feelings,we changed our rifle’s name to simply ‘the Ruger44 Carbine.’”

The carbine proved to be nearly indestructible,built “like a tank” in the tradition of most Rugerguns. Two samples were sent to the H.P. WhiteLaboratory in Maryland to see what it would taketo blow them up. Even with a full case of fast-burn-ing Bullseye powder, generating over 100,000pounds per square inch of pressure, the guns heldtogether, although a ring in the chamber was gener-ated. One caution had to be observed in the use ofthe guns; only jacketed bullets were recommend-

ed. Shaved lead from lead bullets would foul thegas port, leading to malfunctions that would bevery difficult to remedy.

This first Ruger carbine was made through1985, with a production total of over 250,000. Afinal 25th anniversary model was made, with aRuger “phoenix” medal in the stock. The gun wasfinally dropped from the Ruger lineup due toincreased production costs. This left a gap in theautoloading .44 niche for 15 years, when in2000, the company launched the second version[bottom photo] of the genre, the “Deerfield” .44Magnum semiauto carbine.

Capitalizing on its experience with the success-ful Mini-14 .223 carbines, Ruger decided to applythe strong and simple M1 carbine-style action towork with the .44 Magnum cartridge. Adapting theaction of the Mini-14 to .44 Magnum was simpleenough, but inasmuch as the .44 is a rimmed car-tridge, a box-magazine feed system was out of thequestion. The rims would catch on each other asthey moved upward and forward in a conventionalbox magazine. The answer was right there in frontof them – the rotary magazine of the 10/22 carbine(itself based on the Savage Model 99 rifle) wasmade specifically to deal with rimmed cartridgefeeding. The decision was made to craft a similarfour-shot rotary mag in .44 Magnum. This wasdone. It was discovered that two problems existedwith the action. First, the exposed operating rod’smovement could be restricted with the supporthand on the forend. This problem was solved witha black polymer covering shield which also servesas a top handguard. A Ruger crest is molded into it.Secondly, because the M1-type action ejects emptycartridges upward, a scope mounted over theaction would be hit repeatedly by the ejectedbrass. The solution here was a leather “scope pro-tector” which was provided with each rifle. It couldbe fitted around the scope turrets to protect themfrom the impact of the brass. This was a bit lessthan elegant, but it worked with most scopes. Theaction does not lock back after the last round isfired, but a pin in the bolt handle like that on themilitary M1 carbine can be pushed down when the

bolt is retracted to keep it there. A crossbolt safetynearly identical to the original is utilized.

The Deerfield “99/44” carbine resembles theoriginal carbine in general configuration, butmeasures a full 37 inches, just 1/4” longer. Thestock, no longer having to conceal a tubular maga-zine, is somewhat slimmer. The standard carbineconfiguration includes front and rear quick-releasesling swivel mounts. A folding aperture rear sightmounted closer to the eye on the rear of thereceiver is provided, and can be removed when ascope is mounted. As with the original carbine,optional International and Sporter stock configura-tions were available. This newer gun weighs 6pounds and 3 ounces, a bit heavier than the origi-nal. It has an 18-1/2” barrel with a 1:20 twist, andsix-groove rifling versus the old 12-groove type.Ruger scope rings and one magazine were includ-ed with each rifle when new, and the introductoryretail list price was $649.

This carbine proved to be quite accurate, withone-inch 50-yard three-shot groups being commonwith most ammunition. Within 100 yards, like itspredecessor, it’s a very handy and effective mediumgame dropper.

This gun could have had an alter ego as aneffective defense carbine if a high-capacity maga-zine had ever been designed for it, perhaps simi-lar to the current Ruger BX-25 .22LR mag thatworks so well in the 10/22 carbine. Sadly, thatpossibility was never explored, and with lacklus-ter sales, the Deerfield 99/44 passed into historyin 2006. Production figures are sketchy, but itappears that roughly over 18,000 of these gunswere manufactured.

Today, both Ruger .44 Magnum autoloadingcarbines are experiencing resurging demand on thecollector market, and with those who would findthem ideal for hunting in the brush. They arebecoming a challenge to find, as their owners tendto hang onto them. “As new” in-the-box exampleshave become quite pricey lately when rarelyfound. These interesting rifles have now becomeclassics for which a modern-day equivalent doesnot currently exist.

Wayback in 1960, however, Bill Ruger, working closelywith famed designer Harry Sefried, found the solu-tion: a .44 Magnum self-loader in which the actionabsorbed much of the recoil, making it more com-fortable to fire and offering quick follow-up shots.Weighing in at 5 pounds and 12 ounces, it washandy to pack and quick to bring into action.Although most folks today are not aware of it, thiswas only the first of two distinct models that hadquite different actions.

The first model [top photo] was introduced inthis manner: “America’s newest game rifle…Provenon the plains of Africa, the RUGER ‘Deerstalker’carbine is a technological breakthrough for thebenefit of American sportsmen…proven not onlyon Whitetails in North America, but on Leopard,Hyena, Wart Hog, Topi and many other species inAfrica…developed to provide the sportsman withthe best possible rifle for hunting deer and othermedium-sized game in brush country.”

Bill Ruger did indeed personally test this gun ona variety of African game, including killing a leop-ard with one shot at 100 yards. Accounts and pho-tos were extensively used in Ruger advertising.

The carbine measured 36-3/4” overall. The 18-1/4” barrel (later lengthened to 18-1/2”) had 12rifling grooves with a 1 turn in 38” twist. Thereceiver was machined from chrome-molybdenumsteel. The tubular magazine held four rounds, and

was filled through an opening in the bottom of thereceiver, just forward of the trigger guard. It used ashort-stroke piston to drive an internal slide thatrotated the bolt to unlock the breech from thereceiver. The bolt remained open after the last shotwas fired, and could be released with a latchahead of the trigger guard. There was a cross-boltsafety in front of the trigger that locked both thesear and the internal hammer. Lyman front andrear sights were standard, and the top of thereceiver was drilled and tapped to accept Weaver-type scope mounts.

The standard carbine stock was oil-finishedAmerican walnut. International (full length) andSporter style stocks were offered as options. Both ofthese had sling swivels and pistol grip caps, andwere checkered at the wrist and forend.

Retail prices in the 1960 catalog were $108 forthe standard, $118 for the sporter, and $128 forthe international model. The guns themselvesbegan to be distributed in September 1961. It’sworth noting that a virtual lookalike clone of thiscarbine in .22 Long Rifle caliber was offered in1964, the Ruger 10/22 carbine, which continuesin Ruger’s lineup to this day.

The initial name “Deerstalker” was not used onthe carbine for long. It seems that the Ithaca GunCompany had a “Deerslayer” shotgun, andaccording to Ruger, “…to avoid any hard feelings,we changed our rifle’s name to simply ‘the Ruger44 Carbine.’”

The carbine proved to be nearly indestructible,built “like a tank” in the tradition of most Rugerguns. Two samples were sent to the H.P. WhiteLaboratory in Maryland to see what it would taketo blow them up. Even with a full case of fast-burn-ing Bullseye powder, generating over 100,000pounds per square inch of pressure, the guns heldtogether, although a ring in the chamber was gener-ated. One caution had to be observed in the use ofthe guns; only jacketed bullets were recommend-

ed. Shaved lead from lead bullets would foul thegas port, leading to malfunctions that would bevery difficult to remedy.

This first Ruger carbine was made through1985, with a production total of over 250,000. Afinal 25th anniversary model was made, with aRuger “phoenix” medal in the stock. The gun wasfinally dropped from the Ruger lineup due toincreased production costs. This left a gap in theautoloading .44 niche for 15 years, when in2000, the company launched the second version[bottom photo] of the genre, the “Deerfield” .44Magnum semiauto carbine.

Capitalizing on its experience with the success-ful Mini-14 .223 carbines, Ruger decided to applythe strong and simple M1 carbine-style action towork with the .44 Magnum cartridge. Adapting theaction of the Mini-14 to .44 Magnum was simpleenough, but inasmuch as the .44 is a rimmed car-tridge, a box-magazine feed system was out of thequestion. The rims would catch on each other asthey moved upward and forward in a conventionalbox magazine. The answer was right there in frontof them – the rotary magazine of the 10/22 carbine(itself based on the Savage Model 99 rifle) wasmade specifically to deal with rimmed cartridgefeeding. The decision was made to craft a similarfour-shot rotary mag in .44 Magnum. This wasdone. It was discovered that two problems existedwith the action. First, the exposed operating rod’smovement could be restricted with the supporthand on the forend. This problem was solved witha black polymer covering shield which also servesas a top handguard. A Ruger crest is molded into it.Secondly, because the M1-type action ejects emptycartridges upward, a scope mounted over theaction would be hit repeatedly by the ejectedbrass. The solution here was a leather “scope pro-tector” which was provided with each rifle. It couldbe fitted around the scope turrets to protect themfrom the impact of the brass. This was a bit lessthan elegant, but it worked with most scopes. Theaction does not lock back after the last round isfired, but a pin in the bolt handle like that on themilitary M1 carbine can be pushed down when the

bolt is retracted to keep it there. A crossbolt safetynearly identical to the original is utilized.

The Deerfield “99/44” carbine resembles theoriginal carbine in general configuration, butmeasures a full 37 inches, just 1/4” longer. Thestock, no longer having to conceal a tubular maga-zine, is somewhat slimmer. The standard carbineconfiguration includes front and rear quick-releasesling swivel mounts. A folding aperture rear sightmounted closer to the eye on the rear of thereceiver is provided, and can be removed when ascope is mounted. As with the original carbine,optional International and Sporter stock configura-tions were available. This newer gun weighs 6pounds and 3 ounces, a bit heavier than the origi-nal. It has an 18-1/2” barrel with a 1:20 twist, andsix-groove rifling versus the old 12-groove type.Ruger scope rings and one magazine were includ-ed with each rifle when new, and the introductoryretail list price was $649.

This carbine proved to be quite accurate, withone-inch 50-yard three-shot groups being commonwith most ammunition. Within 100 yards, like itspredecessor, it’s a very handy and effective mediumgame dropper.

This gun could have had an alter ego as aneffective defense carbine if a high-capacity maga-zine had ever been designed for it, perhaps simi-lar to the current Ruger BX-25 .22LR mag thatworks so well in the 10/22 carbine. Sadly, thatpossibility was never explored, and with lacklus-ter sales, the Deerfield 99/44 passed into historyin 2006. Production figures are sketchy, but itappears that roughly over 18,000 of these gunswere manufactured.

Today, both Ruger .44 Magnum autoloadingcarbines are experiencing resurging demand on thecollector market, and with those who would findthem ideal for hunting in the brush. They arebecoming a challenge to find, as their owners tendto hang onto them. “As new” in-the-box exampleshave become quite pricey lately when rarelyfound. These interesting rifles have now becomeclassics for which a modern-day equivalent doesnot currently exist.

All the shooting sports have unusual athletes.Call them “champions,” or even “stars.” Among“stars” you find “greats” that do more than win.They change the sport.

Kenda Lenseigne grew beyond “star” statussome time ago, becoming part of the culturalbedrock of mounted shooting. In the course ofwinning multiple titles on the national and worldstage, Kenda transformed the guns, the gear, eventhe saddles used by the current generation ofriders and shooters.

“If you’d have asked me 16 years ago if Ithought I could make a career out of this Iwouldn’t have said yes,” says Kenda. “Whowould have known you could do something youlove so much and make a living at it?”

Today Kenda is both “making a living” and“living a message” of responsible firearm use thatopens doors worldwide. As a trainer, shooter,rider, and ambassador for the shooting sports,there is a lot to be said for Kenda Lenseigne.

“She’s had an amazing impact on the mountedshooting world,” says Ken Amorosano, formerpublisher of Western Shooting Horse, and currentpublisher of Cowgirl and True West. “She becamea role model for hundreds of girls that wanted to

be just like her, and she’s never let them down.”I caught up with Kenda at her New River,

Arizona, home, freshly returned from anAmerican Quarter Horse Association (AQHA)night event in Scottsdale (the Sun CircuitChampionship). Like most people, I’d alwaysassumed that mounted shooting was primarilyregulated by SASS – the major governing body forcowboy-style events. Not true!

Mounted shooters and SASS “groundshooters” have very different needs, and whenKenda got started shooting in 1998, the CowboyMounted Shooting Association (CMSA) had justbranched out from SASS. Since then, the twoorganizations have followed different roads. Themost visible difference being CMSA’s decision toeliminate SASS’ long-standing costumerequirements.

“Changing the required dress code changedeverything,” says Kenda. “That one decisionopened up the sport to the broader equestriansports world,” says Kenda. The result was amodern rodeo event akin to barrel racing –with guns.

Later this year Kenda will make her fourth tripto France to serve as an ambassador/trainer forthe growing community of western shootingenthusiasts there.

European mounted fans are overcomingarduous gun control requirements – using cap-and-ball revolvers if they have to – in order toshoot from horseback. Some European riders arebringing their dream to learn all there is to knowabout the mounted shooting and cowboy lifestyleall the way to the United States to compete.

With the AQHA now recognizing mountedshooting as an official event, mounted shooting’sfuture appears very bright.

New Sport = New GearBack in the late 1990s, Kenda and her fellow

riders had no gear that really “worked” formounted shooting. Some things could be adapted(barrel racing saddles, for example), but most ofthe “gun stuff” was just wrong.

Imagine trying to re-holster a SAA one-handedusing a period-correct “slim jim” holster at fullgallop. It’s not quite like threading a needle, butyou get the idea.

“We had people wearing their rigs in betweenstages, with water bottles stuffed in their holstersto get them to stay open,” says Kenda. “And I wasone of them!”

Problem became opportunity when Kenda metSafariland’s Scott Carnahan at NRA’s Bianchi Cupin Colombia, Missouri. The holster innovationsthat practical shooters like Carnahan take forgranted – low-cut fronts for faster draws,laminated holster materials, adjustable drawtension – all that was unknown to the mountedcommunity.

Carnahan connected Kenda with his designstaff, and the Bianchi Cowboy line has offeredKenda Lenseigne signature holsters ever since.Kenda’s line takes advantage of the technologythat Safariland is known for, but holds the standardof a traditional look and feel. “Its like an oldmodel car with a new engine.”

The same story applies to handguns.“When you look at the products I’ve been

involved in helping develop, people essentiallyare benefiting from my decade of learning thehard way,” laughed Kenda.

As Kenda explained, it’s difficult to shoot astandard Peacemaker well right out of the box dueto the stiff hammer action. Competitive shootersimmediately lighten the hammers.

“When I first started in the sport, I had heardabout the legendary Bob Munden being the go-togunsmith, so I sent him my guns. When I got themback, $300 per gun later, I had hair triggers –which is absolutely NOT what you want formounted.”

Once Kenda found the right gunsmiths, hermounted guns began to evolve.

“The original hammer spur on the oldPeacemaker tends to open your grip when you’reshooting one-handed,” Kenda explained. “So, wetook that hammer spur and made it lower andwider for quicker access.”

Today Uberti firearms offers the KendaLenseigne signature line as a package “racegun”for mounted shooting. They sell well to mounted

shooters, and to “ground shooters” thatcompete in SASS events.

Back in the (Circle Y) SaddleCertain brands have become household words

among horse people in the United States. One ofthe largest is Circle Y Saddles.

“In January of ‘09 Circle Y contacted me todesign a saddle for them, saying, ‘We want to bethe first in the industry that builds a saddlespecifically for your sport.’”

Kenda was shocked. What an honor!“This is the saddle brand that practically

EVERYBODY grew up riding, or at least wanting toride. Basically, if you own a horse, you knowCircle Y.”

Kenda had ridden many different disciplinesover the years, so she had a lot to say.

“They sent out their designer to visit with me,and we sat down with a yellow pad. We sketchedout what I thought would be a good design for thesport: a forward-tilted horn to allow clearance foryour gun leather, free moving stirrups, and a deepseat to hold you in while in motion.”

A contract to ride for Circle Y developed, andthings got very serious.

“They hand-delivered the prototype to one ofthe CMSA majors in Arizona. They put it on myhorse, did a photo shoot, then gave me theoption to ride it in the upcoming event, or ridemy regular saddle.”

As any sponsored competitor knows, runningbrand-new gear at an important match invitesdisaster. If it works, you’re a hero. If it fails, youdamage yourself and the brand. It’s a high-stakes“hero or zero” gamble.

“I warmed up my horse in the saddle for about45 minutes, liked it, and decided the time wasright to believe in my design and go for it.”

Kenda set the world record on her first pass,and her saddle design went “hero” instantly.

“The design was a hit from day one, we’ve onlymade some minor changes since then. Differentgrades of leather, etc,” she says.

Not every project has worked out so well, butas she’ll tell you “You can’t excel unless you fail atime or two and learn from your experiences.”

The LifeKenda’s life involves many pieces. She

describes herself as “horse-heavy at themoment” with six of her own quarter horses invarying stages of training, plus several more thatshe’s training for customers. As you mightimagine, training a horse to deal with a gunshotfired near its head isn’t easy – and would-becompetitive riders are more than willing to payher for her help.

Kenda’s involved with every piece of thepuzzle, firing .22 blanks from horseback on herhome range, and taking horses to the Ben Averycomplex to shoot the louder .45s.

In an internet age, Kenda’s an irony in motion.She’s competing, training, traveling the world,designing, and doing media appearances – allbecause of her skill with a horse and a gun.

Acharacteristic of virtually all progressive reloading ma-chines, regardless of brand, is that the dies are set rather

close together. When you are first setting up a “naked” ma-chine, there is plenty of wrench room, but if you have a needto adjust a die afterward, it often requires a delicate touch tomaneuver a lock ring on a crowded toolhead.

Dillon Precision has addressed this in two ways. We nowoffer new 1” die lock rings and a 1” Bench Wrench to fitthem.

By Duane Thomas“How to Become a Handgun Wizard!”The name Ken Hackathorn needs no introduc-

tion to those heavily involved in the firearms train-ing community, either as instructors or students. Aformer Green Beret and current cop, he’s alsobeen one of our most well-known and well-respected firearms trainers for the past 30 years.Recently he commented in an online article, “Ofthe vast number of people that carry guns for selfdefense, only a very small number are competentwith them…I am often asked to provide a skillcheck or ‘test’ for those that take their combatmarksmanship seriously…I offer the following‘Wizard Drill’. It is very simple, requires only fiverounds of ammo, and can be shot on any rangethat allows work from the holster.”

Okay, you show me a drill put forth by a well-known instructor to be considered competent withthe concealed carry handgun; I’ll show you a drillI had to try. Thus I reposed to the range with myeveryday carry gun and carry gear. The gun was aGen-3 Glock 17, mildly customized; the holsterwas a straight drop Blade-Tech Standard Belt Hol-ster; ammo was Winchester 127-gr. SXT +P+; theconcealing garment was a Concealed Carry Cloth-iers Double Action vest.

Hackathorn’s Wizard Drill uses a single USPSAor IDPA target with a 4” circle centered in the tar-get’s head. The handgun must be carried con-cealed; ammo is what you normally carry. Thereare four strings to the Wizard Drill, the first threetake one round each, the last one takes two, for atotal of five rounds. Allowable time for each of thefour strings is a putative 2.5 seconds per, but inactuality it’s 2.7 seconds. Hackathorn suggestssetting the par time on your timer at 2.5 seconds,but he actually allows up to 2.7 seconds to com-plete each string since “that is about the length of

the buzzer on most timers.” If pocket carrying,you may start with your hand on the gun in thepocket. Otherwise, hands begin hanging normallyat sides, off the gun.

When you’re done, you should have three hitsin the head and two in the body. Any miss of theentire target is an automatic fail. You can drop twopoints and still pass the test, any more than that isalso a fail. Hits inside the 4” head circle or cuttingthe line are considered down zero points, outsidethe circle but inside the head perforation is downone point per. For the body shots, whether you’reusing the IDPA or USPSA target, you score it likean IDPA target, i.e. a hit in the target’s highestscoring area, either the IDPA -0 circle or USPSAA-zone is down zero points, a hit in the IDPA“center mass” -1 zone or USPSA target’s C-zone isdown one point, a hit in the IDPA “peripheral hits”-3 zone or USPSA target’s D-zone is down threepoints. In other words, anything outside the C-zone/-1 zone, you automatically fail. There is noMajor/Minor scoring; every hit counts the same nomatter what caliber inflicted it.

Okay, let me dispel the suspense. Did I pass theWizard Drill? Yes, I did. However, it was not theslam-dunk I thought it would be. It actually tookme three tries to get it. The first run, I stopped part-way through because I missed a head shot. Sec-ond run, my times were good but I dropped threepoints. Third time was the charm, made the timesand only dropped two points. Here are the fourstrings of the Wizard Drill, and the times I postedon my passing run:

String 1: Start at three (3) yards. On signal,draw and fire one (1) head shot master hand only.My time: 1.94 seconds.

String 2: Five (5) yards. On signal, draw and fireone (1) head shot. On this string, and every otherstring until the end of the test, you may place both

Equipment for the Wizard Drill wasThomas’ everyday carry gear, alightly customized Glock 17 in astraight drop Blade-Tech Standard

Belt Holster.

The Wizard Drill was designed by famed weapons trainer Ken Hackathorn, shown here firing a 1911 “rail gun” with SureFire X200

hands on the gun. My time: 1.99 seconds.String 3: Seven (7) yards. On signal, draw and

fire one (1) head shot. My time: 1.91 seconds.String 4: Ten (10) yards. Draw and fire two (2)

body shots. My time: 2.52 seconds.You will find in this article a photo of my

resulting target. Am I happy with my performanceon this run? I am not. I used a USPSA targetbecause that was the only clean target I had onhand. If I’d been using an IDPA target, one of mybody shots, and quite possibly both, would havebeen outside the -0 circle, which would havegiven me four points down and a fail. When Ishowed up at the range, to be brutally honest, ithad been about a month and a half since I hadbeen able to live fire, and during that time frame Ialso sloughed off on my dry fire. It showed in aserious anticipation-of-recoil issue that pulledshots low. Also, even though we technically get amax of 2.70 seconds to complete each string, Ireally didn’t like that it took me over 2.50 secondsfor the 10-yard work.

Well, there was no way my ego could handlethat. It might be (barely) worth mentioning that,after passing the Wizard Drill the first time, I didsome bench rest shooting and found that the sightson the gun needed to be adjusted seriously to theright. And, and, the sun was in my eyes (on theindoor range). And if you don’t like those excus-es…I have others! The pieces of white tape tell thetale (check out the second target photo), it tookme some practice to turn in a run I could livewith. And Winchester 127-gr. SXT +P+ doesn’t justgrow on trees, you know. Talk about motivation toget it right in fairly short order; pulling the triggeron your dwindling store of that stuff will do it.“Pass” was not good enough. “Pass if this was anIDPA target” was good enough. My “goodenough” run showed times of 2.15, 2.16, 2.03 and

2.57 seconds, and only dropped one point – andthat would have been only one point even if I’dbeen shooting on an IDPA target. I’m still notthrilled about my time on String 4, but at least myaccuracy wasn’t completely wretched.

I found it very interesting that I was consistentlyfaster at seven yards than I was at five. You’d thinkit would be the other way around. The only way Ican explain this is that I simply do so much of myshooting practice at seven yards.

So I guess that, according to the results of theWizard Drill, I am indeed competent to carry agun for self-defense. Though I did pass the WizardDrill in short order, the truth is this test would bepretty brutal for most people. Also I will say, thereis something to be said for carrying a “real gun”like my Glock 17. As Hackathorn commented,“Don’t be surprised to find that those little 2″ Air-weight .38 Special revolvers and pocket .380autos are nearly impossible to pass this drill with.In police work we call this ‘a clue.’”

I have never really bought into the argument,which you see repeated over and over again inso many gun articles when talking about thebitty shootin’ irons, “For the vast majority of self-defense encounters, this gun’s [teeny sights,crappy trigger pulls, wimpy cartridge, lowcapacity, two-finger grip surface] should be per-fectly adequate.” It’s like people think their self-defense emergency is going to somehow magi-cally build itself around the gun they’re carrying.I’ve always figured the self-defense emergencywill be whatever it is, and if I’m not carryingenough gun to deal with the problem, well,that’s too bad for me. That’s why you’ll never seeme carrying one of the tiny .38s/.380s as myonly gun, and my primary carry gun tends to bea bit larger than most folks’.Duane’s website is Self-Defense-Handguns.com.

KEN HACKATHORN’S “WIZARD DRILL”

Thomas’ first pass of the WizardDrill on the USPSA target wouldhave been a fail if he’d been usingan IDPA target, turning his “down

two” into a “down four”.

This pass, dropping only one pointoff possible, would still have beendown only one point even on anIDPA target. The third head shot ishiding inside the line of the head

circle at about five o’clock.

The draw from concealment. Notethe “Get some!” facial expression,extremely important for success on

drills like these.

change point of impact as the rifle heats up. Rock solid and easy toinstall, the two-piece design enables the removal and replacementof your optics without losing zero.

Scout Scope Mounts easily allow for complete DISASSEMBLY ofyour rifle for cleaning and maintenance while retaining zero. Theserifles are designed so that carbon build-up can easily be cleanedfrom the gas tube and piston. This is routine maintenance, necessaryin order to maintain a properly functioning rifle.

By Brian Dervin Dillon, Ph.D.George Armstrong Custer (1839-1876) owned

several Remington Rolling Block rifles in differentcalibers. His favorite was the .50-70 buffalo gunhe took on his Yellowstone expedition of 1873.Custer appears with this rifle in several photos, insome alongside his Indian scouts, in others withgame he killed with it (Figure 1). This .50-70Rolling Block is thought by most scholars to havebeen with him at the Little Bighorn when he waskilled. Arguments about the precise spot whereCuster fell have, for decades, depended upon thearchaeological presence or absence of fired cas-ings from this rifle, for these were unlike the small-er, standard issue, carbine rounds fired by histroopers. The Sioux, Cheyenne and Arapahoe wonthe battle on June 25, 1876, but had already lostthe larger war: their “on the hoof” food supply wasfast disappearing to swarms of buffalo hunters. Onthat day Custer’s Rolling Block rifle became anIndian trophy. Its whereabouts have beenunknown for the past 140 years.

Our own .50-70 Remington Rolling Block buf-falo gun (Figure 2) occupied a place of honor upon the wall above the dining table, alongside

other rifles and carbines, some older, someyounger. Grandpa Dillon, a U.S. Army mustang,avid gun collector and teetotaler, bought the mon-ster from the Gold Dust Saloon in Sausalito, Cali-fornia, in January 1920, shortly before prohibitionforced its closure. For many years the rifle residedover the bar of that saloon. Its neighbor was a .56-50 Spencer Carbine also brought home to the Dil-lon house (Blue Press No. 273). Both were potentreminders of the historical forces that had movedour forbears westwards across the American conti-nent. The Gold Dust Saloon was just outside theFort Baker military reservation, and catered to off-duty soldiers. Grandpa Dillon was familiar with itfrom many visits as Sergeant of the Guard, begin-ning in 1902, while removing obstreperous, ine-briated, enlisted patrons. How the old rifle cameto be there remains a mystery.

Over a 30-year period more than a millionRemington Rolling Blocks were made in just aboutevery caliber under the sun. More of these single-shot rifles were shipped to Asia, Europe, the Mid-dle East, and Latin America than were ever sold athome. Although they could be had in as fancy agrade as any customer desired, at many times the

Show & Tell With the Buffalo Gun

Figure 1: George Armstrong Custer with one of his Remington Rolling Block rifles and a bull elk just killed with it. The gun is a No. 1 Sporting Rifle with standard 26-inch octagon barrel, just like the Dillon family buffalo gun. Most historians believe that Custer’s rifle at the Little Bighorn was this same .50-70 Remington Rolling Block.

After he was killed there on June 25, 1876, the rifle passed into Indian hands. The above photo was taken duringCuster’s September, 1873 Yellowstone Expedition. Photo courtesy of the National Archives.

cost of the basic rifle, most guns sold both domes-tically and abroad were “plain Jane,” no-frills ver-sions. Remington began chambering its rifles inthe .50-70 Government centerfire cartridge for theArmy and Navy as early as 1867. The Dillon fami-ly gun, an octagon-barreled variant with fixed rearsight and very low serial number, was one of thefirst offered to civilians in 1870. By 1872, thecompany was advertising a round-barreled variantas its “.50-70 Government Buffalo Rifle” capitaliz-ing on the popularity of the earlier version.

The Dillon family rolling block is a very earlyModel No.1 with straight bar extractor, and faint“50” caliber marking stamped on its barrel’sunderside. After a few years of use as a buffalogun in the early 1870s, it passed into the posses-sion of a Plains Indian. At some point, its newowner’s horse rolled over, snapping the Reming-ton’s stock in half just behind its receiver. The gunwas repaired, Plains Indian fashion, with strips cutfrom tin cans with a hunting knife, hammered onwith small brads. Afterwards the stock was tightlywrapped with a single, very long, green buffalorawhide thong and soaked in water, forcing it tocontract, tightening and hardening it like iron.

The premier buffalo gun just before the CivilWar was the Sharps, beautifully made andsupremely accurate. A percussion breech-loaderemploying a linen cartridge, it was much faster toreload than any contemporary muzzle-loader.And, if you ran out of its special cartridges, in apinch you could still “roll your own,” wrappinghomemade rounds with newspaper. During theCivil War tens of thousands of .52 caliber Sharpscarbines, but many fewer rifles, were used byUnion troops. Most of the Sharps in the hands ofbuffalo hunters immediately after the Civil Warwere these same .52 percussion guns, now sold asArmy surplus.

Meanwhile, the .50 Government had becomethe first U.S. Army centerfire rifle cartridge, render-ing the larger caliber muzzle-loaders used by bothsides during the Civil War obsolete. The Unionexperiment with rimfires – a couple thousand .44Henrys, but more than 80,000 big-bore Spencers,both rifles and carbines, as well as a few old per-cussion Sharps carbines re-chambered for metalliccartridges – had convinced the ordnance depart-ment that the finicky, low-powered rimfires had tobe superseded by centerfire cartridge guns. Thefirst of the new .50-70-450 centerfire rifles were

issued in 1866, only a year after the war’s end. Asmore of the longer-range and more reliable single-shot centerfires were produced, the old rimfirerepeaters were phased out, although some specialtroops (Indian scouts) still carried them.

The first all-new, post-Civil War, civilian Sharpswas the Model 1869, also the earliest purposelydesigned for metallic cartridges. These were offeredin several calibers, the most popular the tried andtrue Government .50-70. A few months later, Rem-ington chambered its No.1 Rolling Block Rifle forthe same round, standard in the U.S. Army-issueSpringfield Trapdoors for the preceding four years.So, by 1870 three different single-shot breechload-ers (Springfield, Sharps and Remington) werechambered for the same .50-70 Governmentround. Of the three, the Remington Rolling Blockbecame the most common buffalo gun. It was sim-ple, easy to make, and inexpensive to buy. Bycomparison, the Model 1869 Sharps was producedin much smaller numbers and was costly. Foreigngovernments and journeyman market hunters alikefound it too expensive and bought the Remingtoninstead. The Rolling Block was joined, after 1873,by large numbers of Army surplus .50-70 Spring-field Trapdoors, made obsolete by the new, .45-70round. From the mid-1870s onwards, as the herdsdwindled, these surplus Springfields became thepoor man’s buffalo gun.

In 1874, the Sharps concern was reorganized,relocated, and renamed the Sharps Rifle Company.It then brought out its most famous rifle, theModel 1874, still in small numbers compared tothe many thousands of Remingtons produced. The.50-90-600 Sharps cartridge appeared in 1872, anobvious attempt to outdo the .50-70, now sixyears old. But few guns were chambered for the.50-90 until the new model Sharps became avail-able two years later. The .50-90 used a 2-1/2 inchcasing, compared to the shorter, 1-3/4 inch case ofthe .50-70. The later Sharps .50-100 and .50-110rounds used the same .50-90 case, simply increas-ing the charge while lightening the bullet. Thesewere the rounds frequently identified by modernwriters as fired in “Big Fifty Buffalo Guns” despitethe fact that very few were ever actually used forbuffalo hunting. Even as these fancy rifles began toappear in “Wild West” shows east of the Mississip-pi, they remained too costly for most workadaybuffalo hunters on the plains. The Sharps .50-90, -100 or -110 cartridges were hard to find, and pro-

hibitively expensive to shoot, so it was the ear-liest “buffalo cartridge,” the .50-70 Govern-

ment, that killed the greatest number of wooliesout on the Plains. Only a few behemoths wentdown to the exotic, Johnny-come-lately, “Big Fifty”Sharps rounds.

Using the costly 1874 Sharps rifles with theirrare and expensive ammunition at long-distanceshooting competitions in New Jersey did not makethem “buffalo guns.” Nor were those much laterrifles, chambered for exotic, long-range cartridgestowards the end of the 1880s “buffalo guns”either, for these appeared only after the greatherds had already beenwiped out. The Sharps,instead, became thefavorite of well-heeledcompetitive shooters backEast, only infrequentlyfired by such greenhornsduring short-term junketsout west. For everyPhiladelphia rube thatstuck a hundred-dollarSharps target rifle out thewindow of a slow-movingtrain, 50 to 100 profes-sional buffalo hunterswere each taking downhundreds of the big ani-mals, day after day, with ten-dollar surplus Spring-fields, or newer, twenty-five-dollar, Remingtons.

The more pedestrian, and earlier, Sharps Model1869 .50-70 buffalo gun shot the same cheap,plentiful, ammo as the Remingtons and Spring-fields, yet market hunters could buy three brand-new rolling blocks for the price of a single Sharps,or, once the Army surplus guns became available,up to ten used Springfields for what the newSharps cost. They did exactly that. More impor-tantly, the thousands of rounds of obsolete .50-70government surplus ammo fired every day, dayafter day, by professional buffalo hunters only costpennies compared to the expensive, dedicated,“big 50” Sharps rounds expended only occasion-ally by wealthy sportsmen.

The last buffalo hunters on the plains were thealso the first, the American Indians. No reservationIndian could have afforded expensive “big fifty”Sharps ammunition, but .50-70 rounds werecheap, plentiful, and still available long after theyhad been made obsolete by the .45-70. Fifty yearsafter Grandpa Dillon’s buffalo gun became aPlains Indian rifle, Bannerman’s was still sellingArmy surplus .50-70 Government ammunition for$2.50 per 100 rounds or $25.00 per thousand. In1927 they still came in the original U.S. Army sur-plus wooden cases of 1,000 rounds. The ancientammunition remained in stock as late as 1940.

More than half a century ago, in my Californiagrammar school, we studied American history. Thecurriculum out on the Pacific Coast was very lighton pigtailed Bostonians in funny short pants, heav-ier on wagon trains crossing the plains, and heavier

still on gold prospecting in places locally familiar tous kids. When it came time for third grade “showand tell,” most boys brought in autographed base-balls, and mumbled something incomprehensibleabout batting averages. No baseballs for me; Ilugged Grandpa Dillon’s .50 Caliber RemingtonRolling Block buffalo gun to class instead. I talkedfor twenty minutes about the westward movementof the 19th century, buffalo hunting on the Plains,and the Transcontinental Railroad. My 1870 buffalogun was visible proof of the story I was spinning. Itold the class that by the early 1880s the buffalo,numbering millions before the Civil War, had been

almost completely wipedout. I explained that hunt-ing the great northern andsouthern herds to the brinkof extinction was no acci-dent, but by the 1870s wasstrategic American militarypolicy to end the long,drawn-out, Indian Wars. Ifthe Plains tribes were“starved out,” they wouldhave to stop fighting. My“show and tell” episodeended with George A.Custer dead at the LittleBighorn in 1876, killedbeside his own .50-70

Remington Rolling Block, just like the one I washolding. His rifle, again just like mine, then becamean Indian gun. My buffalo gun was the ice-breaker.I later took other guns to school for show and tell,as props for subsequent lectures on the Civil War,the California Gold Rush, and so forth and so on.These became so routine that other kids sometimesasked, “What, no gun today?” when I showed upon the playground without one.

Long ago and far away, as an 8-year old, I tookguns to school for show and tell. The guns carriedinto the classroom were universally recognized ashistorically important, icons of our shared experi-ence way out west. The old Dillon family buffalogun first went to school in 1961. It has continuedto do so, off and on, ever since. It has appearedrepeatedly as a teaching tool in my college-levelAmerican History, American Indian Ethnology andHistorical Archaeology lectures. I have had theprivilege, on several occasions over the past 40years, of showing it to American Indians descend-ed from warriors who fought at the Little Bighorn.The rifle, with its buffalo hunting and Custer con-nection, never fails to spark a reaction. My Indianfriends always tell me that “Custer had it coming,”then, when they heft the old rifle, some say “ifonly we had had something like this long beforeCuster came along….” The old .50-caliber Rem-ington Rolling Block also takes center stage in myNRA Reloading classes, then is put away longbefore any live ammunition gets made. So, formore than 50 years, the family buffalo gun hasbeen going to school for “show and tell.” It alwayssteals the show.
