I found a 1902 Remington that had been sporterized, caliber was 7x57mm with a bad bore.
At the time Numrich was still selling heavy oct barrels in 45-70 which I bought and installed.
Also found a nice buttstock too.
Also made a large tang rear sight and with windage. I shot mostly black powder with 500 gr bullets and when the bullets hit the small three inch steel plates at 100 yards, I marked the tang sight ladder
