After being in and out of the single shot world 3 times in 35 years I'm back. Stevens 44 in 28/30 should arrive this week. now I've got to figure out ammunition etc... I know cases are the big issue, I only need 10 or so. I'll keep this updated as I know more about this rifle.

You might want to consider making a cerrosafe cast of the chamber then send that cast piece to Rocky Mountain Cartridge Co. They will make you a box (20) of cases that precisely fit your chamber. Use 1 case to make a breech seater, the remainder of the box should last you for the rest of your shooting career. I think a box of RCC cases of that size run in the neighborhood of $60 but you can get an exact price on their website.
Good luck and please let us know how it shoots.

I have a Redfield 3200 in 16x and a Lyman 144 tang sight for it already.

The rifle is here. It's everything I hoped for. It's a model 44 and a put together piece. Barrel # does not match. The wood and finish are redone and beautiful. The lyman 144 is mounted. Now I need to get some front sight inserts, figure out a way to mount the Redfield 3200 and tool up to reload. Serial #19265.

I need 1 or  more inserts for a 115 / 116 mva ? globe sight. My stevens 44 project had none when bought. There is 7/16" inside the legs on the sight clip. Inserts are out of stock every where.
