Stimpy I have been looking also and I have not found any others yet as far as Huntsman's. As hard as I've tried I just can't find the .32 .36 that should of been made for the squirrel hunters. I know they made some other BP ones. Don't you have a Wesson Harrington Shikari 45/70? Then there are the 45 US Springfields repo's from the 70's with a plain Jane  and an officer's model and the collector limited edition 100 anniversary... Foggy has said some about the original Springfields being 50 cal and being assembled from musket parts for the indians. I just picked up a 45 repo from the 70's and am still awaiting arrival looks great in the photos . The only other thing my be the 12ga ML but I don't know if it was called a Huntsman I think goldhound56 has one for sale in the classifieds I know it's from the 70's un fired. kurt

stimpy,

The H&R Huntsman from the 70's were made in .45, .58, and 12ga. The NEF Huntsman from '02 on was only made in .50 caliber even though my 2003 OM has loads listed for both .50 and .45. The NEF .45's never made it to retail.
