any luck with Jon Powers? Many times these things go south as far as phone numbers, especially these days with everyone dropping the land line, and going with Cell service.
I am trying to find the original magazine article I have on the gun.
Something else J.D.Jones had, that an aquaintance of mine got. 454 Casull casings, necked down to 22 caliber, for the Wickliffe Rifle. It was done in the 1976,77 time frame by J.D.Jones. He had a bunch of the brass laying around, so he sold it to my friend.
That should be a real thumper on groundhogs. Supposed to do 4000 fps. No loading data availiabe.
I have an article about Elmer that I will post, about him shooting the Wickliffe Single Shot rifle, at the Y.O.Ranch in the 1976 time frame. Veru good article, and fantastic shooting, especially by a man that was drinking Chivas Regal like water. Elmer really put one on when away from home.
