J.P. Sauer Krupp Steel

[Bill Murphy]

My Sauer hammer driller is 16X16X11.15X65. 2 1/2" .410s shoot wonderfully out of the rifle barrel, so it is quite handy in the field. A three barrel shotgun!

I really enjoy drillings. 200 and 245 grain cast bullets shot high (with the 245's hitting higher than the 200's), so I'll be trying 180's as soon as I get them. It would be a thrill to get a deer with this gun !

I had a Sauer sidelock chambered the 10.75 something. I shot .410s and .44-40 It was a Dreileufer (side lever cocked the rifle) 2nd gun I ever bought from Gary Herman, ca.1972

Bill, I'm pretty sure I still have some 11.15. Yours if you want it.

I'm looking for some help finding a Drilling in 16 ga barrels 26" or longer with a user friendly rifle caliber if anyone runs across one.
Thanks Bob

I have a hammer drilling made by Kettner or Kerner I cannot remmember which without digging it out of the safe . But mine's 16 Sxs with a rifle barrel in 10.75x65R Collath . This is nothing more then the 444 case with a shaving on top .

I've yet to fire mine but if I remmember correctly the cartridge was a low pressure round shooting lead bullets of approx 200 grains .

I'll get around to it soon hopefully .

Edgar, I would love to have some 11.15 if you care to part with them. I have not seen one before. I will PM.

Thru further research in the 10.75x65R Collath round I have found a better alternative . In actuality the 444 case will work but it's a hair short . The better alternative is to get new 405 WIN brass a set of CH4D dies and make the correct length brass ! If I'm not mistaken 405 brass is maybe 2/100's over length . So an easy trim job and runnign them thru the 10.75 expander and you ready to load . I typically size bullets for the 444 at .432" but the 10.75x65R Collath is supposedly a .424" . And again thats not a great problem I can run the same 200-225 grain bullets thru a .427" or .429" die and be fine with air cooled wheelweight alloy .
