Dave called me this morning.  He is out of state so he doesn’t have access to the data.  When he gets home he will find one of the books where the data is published.  He did say that Milbank primed 44 WCF cases were found.  He agrees that all of the 44 caliber ammo, rim fire and center fire, was fired by the Indians.  They did find a 1st Model 1873 Win carbine.  He also said that they figured that 30% of the Indian guns were Winchesters.  He will be in Cody.

I have several of the archeology books, will be nice to cross reference them with his data. Will give me an excuse to dig them back out again.

Oh, today didn’t go so good, but I got to sit on a porch with a 73′ in my lap, while most others were out working 😉
