Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

Vall, your time frame seems right compared to a receipt for a rifle I have, ordered May 2001, #C825. Badger barrels in that time frame were pretty much standard in all calibers unless something else was specified. Each rifle had a pretty extensive order sheet with all the build details on it but not being an office guy I'm not sure a copy was returned to the customer.
Since I purchased the Ballard I have from my friend's widow, I didn't get the build or order sheet with it. He was a huge fan of Ballards built in Cody, and had 5 of them at his death. He told me when he ordered this one it had a Badger barrel, but I couldn't locate the build sheet in his firearms records. I found them for two of his 5 guns, just not mine. Guessing it got lost, or he didn't get one.
Appreciate your input as to what they used during this time frame.

In October, a Cody Ballard rolling block sold at the Poulin auction in Maine for just over $2800. I was led to believe it was a reworked #1 Remington action that had been completely redone with beautiful case coloring and a new heavy barrel in 22lr. Unfortunately, I was outbid for it.

I purchased a beautiful Cody Ballard Pacific #5 in 40-70 a few years ago and the workmanship if fantastic. I have to agree that the talent in the Cody shop was first class. I shoots as good as it looks too. rats
