Breech seater for Stevens 44 1/2 (Read 4337 times)

	I've got a custom bottleneck chamber. I love the Russ Weber seater for my hiwall, but there is no straight shot for such to work on the Stevens. Any thoughts for a mechanical seater?

	Having one made by Bill Bargalof for my 44 1/2 right now. This might be his wife's email barglof@windstream.net

	Having a case made and bored straight is good advice. I made one for my 28-35SS bottle neck case out of 12L14. JLouis

	Thanks for the suggestions. The straight thru bottleneck sounds ideal, but not certain I care to change the hammer. Will study on it. Also will contact Mr Bargalof.

	This is the one that I made for my 44 1/2. It anchors on the tang sight base. Frank
