My collection of Hepburn rifles just grew by one more yesterday when another arrived via the brown truck. A Hepburn in a rare .45 2 7/8" showed up on another site and I was lucky to see it first and grab it. The .45 2 7/8" is also referred to as the .45-110 Sharps, and was a powerful cartridge during the Buffalo hunting days. Not many Hepburns got chambered in this cartridge, so finding even one is pretty unusual.
The full octagon barrel is an very heavy profile at 30" length and the Hepburn weighs about 14 lbs. It came with a Lyman tang sight, but otherwise fairly standard configuration. Bore on this one is like new and should be a great shooter once I can dig up some brass!

my pics look fine. Very nice gun.
Thanks.
My pocket Canon Power Shot has little illuminated boxes that supposedly focus when I push the shutter button halfway down to tell me it's focused. But for whatever reason I can still mess it up.
Took my new Hepburn out to our gun club on Tuesday maintenance day to show a couple friends. There were over a dozen guys there in the morning for work day, and beyond my two friends not a single person knew what it was. Several asked if it was a Sharps, and one asked if it was a falling block; at least he got that much right. When I said it's a Remington Hepburn I got puzzled looks, and guys saying they'd never heard of a Hepburn. I guess I take for granted gun guys are more knowledgeable about these old guns?
