	Am I correct in assuming that Remington never made the Number One Rolling Block in .40-65?

	If you need more than one shot, you need more practice!

	I think you're correct. At least I've never seen one, and Marcot's book doesn't show that caliber. Since the .40-65 was introduced around the time Remington went bankrupt in 1886 it's a bit newer cartridge. So if it was ever offered I'd expect it to be a special order chambering. I'd never say "never", but it's not listed in the old catalogs of the 1890's nor as a cartridge available in the #5 Sporting Rifles either. I have a Rolling Block I built off an original Sporting action and chambered in .40-65 Win. and it's one of my favorites to shoot.

	Since you're back I'll ask you a question thats been nagging me. Do the Sporting No. 1 and 1 1/2 actions share the same barrel threads? I'm thinking yes.

I'm thinking yes. Yellowhouse, They are not the same, at least I have never seen a 1-1/2 with the larger shank. The 1-1/2 has a thinner reciever thickneness. The 1-1/2 thread is very similar to the #2 but the configuration of the shank length and pilot stub are not the same. Dennis

	You can't make good decisions without good information.

I'm thinking yes. They are both 12 square threads per inch, but a #1 is a 1" diameter, while #1 1/2 is .850" diameter.

	I have a nice Rolling Block that a friend had built. I bought it from his daughter when he passed. My granddaughter likes it too.
