Excelsior should be same steel if not Damascus.
Thanks
I dont think their were more than 1200 of these crossbolt guns made, tuff to find any good info.
Great to hear you have 2. Awesome!

I shot 25 rounds of 1 1/8 international powder 10k plus loads through it today with no problems( yep Im married so what the hell LOL). I will keep them under 10k and use reasonably fast powders. First 6 pit free on pitted side very thick. Think I will skip anything more stout than that.

But would like to know if your excelsior has any proof marks.
Thanks Keith
