I have given thought in the last month or so about picking up one of these Seville's, but they seem to be made of unobtanium and just don't show up around here.

Mike....I'll keep you posted on an available 357 Maximums. Now the only time I pass on 41 Sevilles is if the asking price is way high. I'd be interested in a Max too, if there's any left to claim...and assuming I will actually have money when they become available. ;D

If you're thinkin' you might get a line on a few... I'd be interested in a .357Max also. I always wanted one with a 10-½" pipe.

510maximum huh?, that looks like another gun someone else posted? Won't mention any names but if it is you know who you are. All Seville and El Dorado's were built on the same frames. The only change came , of course for the long framed guns and the mighty 454. That was a completely different mold to beef up all area's of the frame.

Same frame, same quality, same machining. Same everything.

Are you looking to have a new cylinder built or have the 357 bored out? Either way, that frame will handle anything a Blackhawk will. -Lee www.singleactions.com

Another thing I should add. John Linebaugh opened the frame window on his early Seville conversions and used over-sized cylinders. You don't have to go this route, but it does add some safety margin. The other benefit of having a new cylinder built is you can do a 5-shot. Sevilles have one downside however.....there's no Bisley backstrap. Heavy 45 Colt loads can be hard on the wrist out of these guns. -Lee www.singleactions.com

I was thinking about using the 357 cylinder reamed to 45 Colt. I'm not looking for a real heavy hitter I have a couple Casulls for that. Would I be safe to run a 300-325 lead ball at about 1200 fps. I am kinda fond of the Super Blackhawk grip frame. So that should be ok.

I have a 45 Seville with 4 5/8" Barrel I would be willing to let go? I have been trying to sell for a while. Tell me about the gun. Has it been mentioned in the classified section?
