Last fall, I thought the same thing happened to me. I was casting for 38-55 and had the windows open with the fans going. It was a nice day as there wasn't a cloud in the sky. I had just released the 50th bullet from the mold to cool when all of a sudden, a huge explosion. I really thought I was a g...

We supposedly have a problem with hogs in my area but I haven't seen a live one in years. A dairy a couple of miles from me has killed nearly 50 from last reports. It was a pretty funny story of how so many hogs appeared around here. Apparently, an individual was going to start a hunting preserve an...

Very nice carbine. I agree with some of the other guys when they say to make sure the rust is good and dead and then oil it. Don't try to reblue it or have it blued because that rifle is purdy like she is. My dad has one the same year, also a flatband, that he won't let me shoot. Sometimes he will l...

Thanks JimT, I have 9 k-frames so when I read this post I became rather concerned. 2 of them are .22 so I didnt check them but the others didn't appear to have a crack. One is a early 19 that came from the forest service that fired at least 100k rounds. I checked them all with an pencil eraser and a...

Hello, there are 2 flat band winchesters in there, a 46 and a 49(according to barrel dates). There are also 4 SRC's. Most of these guns are older ranch guns. All have excellent bores and some have stories that came with them when I bought them. The big one is a Browning Montana commemorative that I ...

Would you call this leveritis?
This is part of my collection as the case is full. There is a half a dozen more but I am not good at posting pictues and wanted to try one for now. I refer to all of them as my babies. http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd294/cryingfarmer/winchester1.jpg Included are all Winchesters except one: 92 r...

Thanks for the warm welcomes and the information. Believe it or not, but I found this forum through an antique farm tractor message board that I have been a member of for many years. For the last two days, I have been reading some of the many fine posts. I really don't know a whole lot about lever g...

Somewhat OT
Hello, what ever happened to the Taylor 76's. Me and my dad both bought one, both chambered in 45-60 and are quite pleased with them. Are they still making them?
