[Rick Losey]

sounds like a good time Charlie

don't see shows like that around here

if you get the 6 bore. get us some pictures

[Mike Franzen]

Wouldn't it be something if that old 6 bore once belonged to Fred Kimble

[charlie cleveland]

that would be nice if it had belong to fred kimble.i ve seen the old gun before pretty nice old piece but has had a stock put on it..... seen a world of ammo to day but the 22 s are still high 100 round box was 18 dollars last week end at another gun show was 11 to 12 for them...1000 rounds of .223 federal was 450..not one drop of powder or shot was there....charlie

[Mills Morrison]

Yes inquiring minds want to see. Post photos of that 6 gauge.

[charlie cleveland]

will probably be a coupla months before i see the old gent that has it..have found a six bore but when am i gona find the 4 bore....charlie

[wayne goerres]

Charlie is that old 6 bore a muzzle loader or a cartridge gun, single barrel or double barrel.

[Destry L. Hoffard]

Kimble's 6 gauge was a single shot.

A friend just picked up a decent double 6 gauge oddly enough, would be a good shooter if somebody was so inclined. Muzzle loader of course, I don't think I've ever seen a breech loader in 6 bore.

That was a deal on the 10 gauge ammo for sure.


Destry

[charlie cleveland]

the 6 bore is a muzzle loader double barrel..i ve never seen a breech loader 6 bore but there was some shells loaded on the ammo sites for sale a few days ago...i know the loading was 3 1/2 ounce of lead but do not remember the powder i think 8 drams of black but aint sure....charlie

[Phil Yearout]

Sounds like a great show Charlie; I'm jealous! Around here, if there are any good buys they're hard to sort out among the black guns, clothing, ladies' jewelry, dietary supplements, et al...and anything that's any good is mostly overpriced!
