forget about Sharps! Remington Rolling Block system was far superior and easier to access and load.

Nothing beats a rolling block!

the remington used by the spanish came in 11.15mm (or 43 spanish) and 11.5mm(43 reformado) not 7mm that was the spanish mauser that was 7mm. sadly 43 reformado remingtons you can reload but there are very few people who sell the brass and no one sells it preloaded
