The above was posted in the post 1898 section with no responses or help, perhaps I posted it in the improper section so I am reposting it here as well as my follow-up post which is below. I would really appreciate any information you learned people have to assist the new RB fan, Thanks....<><....
I believe I may have located the proper cleaning rod for my 7mm Rolling Block. It is priced at $50, I am very new to Rolling Blocks and am inquiring if anyone here has any idea about the prices of original cleaning rods? How does the $50 sound for a proper original rod? I have also located and purchased what I believe to be the proper short bayonet for this gun with the Remington Arms inscription in the blood groove, it comes with the scabbard(sheath) and frog and I paid $110.00 for it. Does that sound like a reasonable price. The gun is now complete and I am planning on loading up some lubed gas checked 139 grain round nose lead bullets which are sized to .285. I have loaded some light loads with 11.0 grains of PB which should give me about 1500 fps and will first try the gun with those loads for accuracy, POI, and function. I hope to try this gun deer hunting next year if the proper situation presents itself. What do you members think of this load? I know I have posted several questions here and thanks for any and all replies (I hope).....Merry Christmas to All!!!....<><....
