Now that is an interesting piece! Jacobs was a thinking man. Did he not design those exploding bullets to destroy artillery ammunition wagons at long range? Arguably the first "anti-materiel" rifle.

Mold need to be a bit hotter when casting those slugs?

Trying out photo up loadsimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpg
I looked forever for a prescribed antique merwin ,then found 2 in quick succession.
The 1st model in 44 russian
The third model in 44 m&h
Both super tight with minty bores
I'm not sure the 1st model hasn't got the original nickel finish

OK..buying gunNutz membership definitely worth the money!
