    first time 45-120

    Heading out to the range today to fire a Sharps 45-120 for the first time. I loaded up 9 rounds. 3 in trailboss powder, 3 in blackpowder, and 3 in benchmark. lets see if my shoulder will hold out that long.

    You will be surprised at how little recoil you will feel.....they will shove rather than kick....not near as bad as a shotgun...

      turned out to be not to bad. Had a great time, can't wait to load some more now that the test loads are out of the way.

        I'd love to squeeze the trigger on one of these. AWSOME. Had a 45-70. And loved.

          That would be fun to shoot. Did you get the Quigley model.

              Did you trickle the powder down a tube to fill the case ? I have a 45-110 and its been a while sience Ive shot it. Man you got me thinking, I need to get it out. I cant even remember all the steps to reload the shells. Fill compress, fiber wad,size lube bullet. Have fun.
