Damascus Ammunition

[Jonathan Ellichman]

I am looking for a site where I can get ammunition for my 1875 Parker 12. It has Damascus barrels.

Try this, alot of shooters buy these, http://www.rstshells.com/ they have about everything.

Or any reload below 7000psi - it would be a lot cheaper. Paul

I have been using Polywad Vintagers in my Damascus Syracuse Lefevers with no issues. My 'Plain Twist' Lifter barrels are with Mr. Bachelder for restoration. I would use the Vintagers with confidence in them, too. Cheers!

Pete, I saw these. I buy ammo from them for my 45-110 and 50-90 Sharps. The problem for me is the 2 1/2 chamber size. They only sell 2 3/4. They cater to the cowboy action crowd. Maybe I should suggest to them to think about our hobby?
