Remington Rolling Block 7x57

[Adam Helmer]

DocHunter,

I got my M1901 7mm Remington Rolling Block in 1961 for $11.67 from Ye Olde Hunter. Jack gave you the specifics on reloading for the old rolling block. Back off your 7mm resizing die about a half, or quarter turn, resize and try in the rolling block. Resize enough until the block rolls up and the hammer will fall upon trigger pull.

I load the Lyman #287308 175 grain roundnose cast bullet in my M1901. I need to elevate to about "500" for point of aim/point of impact at 100 yards.

At the last gun show nearby, a Poor Grade M1901 was tagged at $1,100.00. I have an original "Short Tooth" bayonet for mine, so I would ask for more money, if I ever sell.
