Description:
The Danish government licensed the manufacture of the 1867 Rolling Block from Remington and built the first 30,000 on Remington actions (this being one of them) thereafter they built them on their own actions at the Copenhagen Arsenal.These rifles were originally rimfire cartridge guns and were converted to centerfire in 1896 along with fitting the longer rear ladder sight. The 11.7X51R cartridge is close to the US .45-70 Government however, they were a bit shorter. A .45-70 will function in the 11.7MM chamber but, being longer may cause an overcrimp which is potentially unsafe. The body of the 11.7MM is slightly larger in diameter and will cause a .45-70 to expand at the base.
