.56-56 Spencer shooters roll call - Calling all "Spencer Shooters"

[Tuolumne Lawman]

Let's start a subgroup support list of 56-56 shooters. It could be the "56-56 Spencer Owner Benevolent Society"  or "56-56 SOBs."

How many of you out there are shooting 1860 models using the "No. 56 cartridge for Spencer's Navy and Army repeating rifles?"

1) Who are you?

2) what load do you use (make of brass, bullet size and make, primer, and how much of what powder)

3) what breech block do you use.

4) any photo of your old gal you might have.

Does it have to be a 56-56  "pimp gun"   

[Tuolumne Lawman]

hahahaha!  Nope, not too many of those around!

It can be any; either an original 1860 model in .56-56, Romano in .56-56, or other 56-56 rifles like Joslyn single shots, I guess

Count me in -
I shoot an original 1860 Rifle - late manufacture SN 23954, part of the last group of rifles manufacutered.
