I have 2 rolling block rifles in 50-70 Gov't (1 3/4"). One is professionally built on an original action. The other is one of the old Val Forgett replicas made by Pedersoli. This Italian is "plus sized", larger in all dimensions than the original.
I intended to sell the second one, but thought it might be interesting to have the chamber bored to 2 1/2" to take a 50-90 Sharps. Same bullets, and I only load blackpowder. Is this as straightforward as it appears, or am I missing something?
