Hi all,
Has anyone heard of such a thing?
I've been told of a rolling block for sale that is supposedly in .28 rimfire.
I'm trying to set up a meeting to see what strange thing it is.
Thanks,
Dave

Dave, a more likely caliber in a rim fire cartridge might be the 25 Stevens RF aka 25-10. These are the only markings I know of in RF in that range of calibers. The 5 could easily be seen as an 8. This is the limit of my knowledge, Good Luck.

If it is a Belgian copy of a Remington Rolling Block it is could be a 7mm rimfire which was used in Flobert rifles and some pistols.

Hi Laurie,
They did say it was "Belgian marked".
Any idea where I can find more info on this?
Maybe case/chamber specs so that I can check it better?
Thanks,
Dave
