Have you ever tried to shoot these rifles? I have had one for over thirty years now and for some reason I think I need to make go Boom! again.
Buffalo Arms uses .348 win. to form there brass from. Anyone tried it? Major

I don't own the model you are talking about, but do have two very nice Remington .43 Spanish Remington, and one not so fine .43 Spanish Reformado. I've done quite a bit of shooting with the .43 Spanish Remington ( Argentine model ) and most of the brass and bullets came from Buffalo Arms, and some of the brass is reformed from .348 Winchester brass, the rest is new made by Jamison. Jamison has since closed their doors and no one is sure if they will reopen or not, but they made some very good brass in many different obsolete calibers, including .577 Snider, and .577/450 Martini Henry, both of which I also own and shoot, and therefore reload for. If I were you I would start obtaining all the brass and bullets, get some good load data, loading dies, etc. and go for it. I can't speak for others but these rolling blocks are some of the funnest rifles I shoot, and my friends like it when I take them out also. Good luck.
