It's a Remmie, but not a Revolver.

Grapeshot

Last year I bought a Pedersoli Baby Rolling Block Carbine in .45 Colt.  I wasn't happy with the way it shot nor the extractors inability to remove spent cases from the chamber, especially those that had a stiff charge of Black Powder/Pyrodex fird through them.

I sent the Carbine to Norman Johnson of High Plains Reboring, 243-14th Ave. NW, Turtle Lake, ND.  He agreed to rebore the barrel to .50 caliber and chamber it in .56-.50.

Man, you should see the job he did on this carbine.  The rifling is crisp and deep.  The extractor pulls those .56-.50ases  right out just as slick as a whistle.  I can hardley wait to get it out to the range and try it out.
Listen!  Do you hear that?  The roar of Cannons and the screams of the dying.  Ahh!  Music to my ears.

Where'd he get the chambering reamer? ???

I reamed a 56-50 chamber using a 50-70 shiloh sharps reamer from brownells.  Just don't push it all the way in.
