I do not have a 480 Achilles but I do have some rejected parts from that project that some old boy pasted toga tree to make a shooter.

Gary Reeder chambered mine and John's. He also fitted the barrels.

Who has the reamer for the chambers? Seems like building one wouldbt be that difficult.

a single 6-48 hole and mounted a marbles or williams rifle base. The base broke into when I attempted to drive/tap sight into dovetail. The 5/8" to 3/4" 6-48 screw with the head turned-down flush with the shank was used as a template for overall height experimentation. The proper sight never got mounted.

That front sight reminds me... (reply)

of the one on my Gamo CFX. There's a lot to be said for a pin front sight of the proper width for use in conjunction with the rear sight.

My quasi/pseudo achilles..... (reply)

.45/.480 hangs there on a hook loaded with (5) .45 short blank of 5 gr. red dot and card wad and a .480" hornady ball topped by a .490" hand cast swaged-in from the front a la percussion revolver and a smear of grease.

I sure hate having missed that... (nt) (reply)
