Like to see pics for A Breech Seater for Ballard that is A side lever like Russ Weber . Also looking at Neal Rices Breech Seaters he made for Millers( SWEET) seems the prongs going down on each side of the hammer could be free floating.Anyway like some ideas.Will make one if it comes to that.Thanks for your time.....

A Russ Weber (or strikingly similar) seater.

If it's not clear from the pic, the block pivots and drops down into the rear of the breach block mortise.

I have a Weber for a model 44  and you push it in and then pivot the Cam down to lock in the back of the breach. It's quite handy as you do not have to pivot the tool to lock it in.

I'd love to see a photo of that 44 seater...I am planning tp make one up for mine and seeing one that works well would be most helpful, thanks!
