http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/Coloradoglocker/HenryYouth.jpg I bought a youth model Henry a couple of years ago when Cabelas had them on sale for $239. It's for my grandson, I'm afraid if I ever take it out of the box and shoot it that he may never get it! <G>. Henry has metal barrel bands...

Wish I was there, please keep us updated.

The Cabela's in Fort Worth has a blue Rossi 92 in .454 Casull for $399, looks almost new. They also "had" one of these, in 357 with fake ivory grips and brilliant case colors. Pics soon, when I get it out of hock (layaway). http://www.emf-company.com/store/pc/catalog/HF357CHSLG434NM_large....

I use a lot of H-335, and have found that it works well in the 30-30. Also use it in .223 and .45-70 loads. It's a ball powder and meters extremely well, I learned a long time ago that thrown charges of H-335 were just as accurate for me as weighed charges. I no longer weigh them all with this powde...

Well I'm out on this hunt after all. There is just no way this hand is up much of anything yet.

Ya'll have a good time and I'll try to join you next time.

Heading out @ 5 am. Shooting for Memphis tomorrow and should be in Avery @noon Friday. I'll stop for beer and anything else I can find along the way. jb 8) I can't wait to shoot something!!! :D Outstanding, Memphis should be about 5 Hrs away from the hunt area. I don't know where in Memphis your st...

That should be fine.

He's in Kansas, I'm in Texas. The safe will be anchored to the floor, which is a concrete slab in the room he's planning to put it in.

Joe/Ricky ... Is there anyplace out there to check the zero on a rifle?

I may make it after all. I've convinced the Doc to take the cast off Thursday. Won't be able to do any heavy lifting , but I expect I'll be able to pull a trigger, or a cork :) ... with that hand. You meant to say "with that hand", right? :wink: :lol: The other hand was operated on in Dec...

He's had a tough time the last few years, single dad raising two girls. We try to help out all we can, getting robbed was kind of the last straw.

My brother's house was broken into and robbed recently. The thieves got 4 of his 5 guns, they didn't find the AR-15 he kept loaded. I'm going to upgrade my safe and have decided to give him the small safe I have in the house now. I also decided to give him a Marlin that I recently bought. It's a 336...

Warhawk

I went back to buy the BLR today, of course it was gone.

I'll know better next time.

Warhawk

Warhawk, I agree about the good price. I wasn't asking about that, though. My question was, why did you refer to Gander Mountain? I never brought them up (though I have bought there before). My OP with the $420 prices was from "opticswarehouse" in Nanticoke, PA. Do you think Gander Mtn an...

Warhawk

Drat you guys/gals! I studied the BLR long and hard, wanted a .358 Win, though I should have wanted a .308 Win (for ammo I already have), and just passed up decent used buys on one of each on GunBroker. I guess I was getting picky. I wanted the so-called "pistol grip" because they just lo...

Warhawk

Warhawk, Why did you say? That $420 price at Gander Mtn must be a clearance price? Both of the $420 ones on GunBroker were from "opticswarehouse" in Nanticoke, PA. Is that Gander Mtn? $400 is a very good price for these guns now. Gander Mountain isn't exactly known for being a low price l...

Warhawk

I've started a couple of responses but this dadgum cast on my hand really interferes with my typing! Thanks for all the responses. I knew this was the right place to ask :D I decided to sell my little Remington 600 and it sold almost immediately. That leaves me without a 308 hunting rifle, and since...

Warhawk

I don't necessarily pause to admire my shot, and I sure don't look down at the action. But I do take the butt off my shoulder slightly and mount the gun immediately after I've cycled the lever. This is partly being very conscious of keep my trigger finger out of the trigger guard to avoid getting it...

Warhawk

I've never paid much attention to the Browning BLR, but now one has caught my eye. I think it's an older version, in .308. The asking price is $550 which I might be able to get down a little. Any good online resources for learning about these? I assume the older steel frame guns are the best, but ar...

Howa and the Rossi 92's have nothing in common except the importer, LSI (Legacy Sports Inc) This should clear up the rest for you http://www.levergunscommunity.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=24569&p=303035#p303035 That $420 price at Gander Mtn must be a clearance price? A couple of good online plac...

I'm out on this hunt after all. Pic below explains why. No big deal, just a minor surgery but it's enough to keep me out of the woods.

Maybe next time

Warhawk

I had to look up that model number, 20 inch octagon, color case receiver. A very nice combination! I have a 44 Mag just like it.

Make yourself to home and stay a while.

Warhawk

This ought to be an interesting rifle. I like the big bores, I've killed more deer with a 338 Win Mag than any other caliber and my favorite lever guns are chambered for the 45-70. But I have a little H&R Topper Junior 20 ga that hurts all the way down to my toes every time I shoot it. I'm anxio...

Are you a Democrat, a Republican, or a Redneck? Here is a little test that will help you decide.

I have yet to see a case where the homeowner was not "No-Billed" by the grand jury in a legitimate case of self defense. I don't know where you live, but things are different down here. Sure, but I was told by my CHL instructor six years ago that even a no-bill trip to the Grand Jury was ...

Warhawk

I experimented with moly coated bullets some years ago when I was shooting in a rifle league. Calibers used were .223 and .243 Win. You will want to clean your bore thoroughly before shooting the moly bullets. It will take several shots to get the bore "seasoned" with moly and get the grou...

Don't bet on it, I've been in Texas for about 5 years now and pay attention to such things as homeowners shooting intruders. I have yet to see a case where the homeowner was not "No-Billed" by the grand jury in a legitimate case of self defense. I don't know where you live, but things are ...

Warhawk

I tried enlarging the pic, not very clear but I can see a barrel band on the fore arm, and a pistol grip stock. Looks like a Marlin.

Warhawk

That is an awful lot of money for a 336. Marlin is about to come out with another one you might be interested in, the 336BL. Laminated pistol grip stock, 18.5 inch blued barrel. Looks like it will be right at $500. http://www.rrarms.com/cat_images/G336BL.JPG . EDIT: It's $501 at RRA Arms and $507 at...

I think all the pre-safety guns were migro groove, that would be an excellent reason.

Warhawk

I love it! Did you also see the new for 2010 1873 carbine in 44 Magnum? Or the 1873 "Callahan" in 44 Mag.

Uberti is going to get some of my money this year!

Warhawk

A Smith & Wesson for me, specifically a 629 Mountain Gun. My reasoning is pretty simple, I shoot a S&W better than I do any single action revolver.

Thanks again for the wonderful responses, guys. After reviewing all of the guns suggested, I've developed some further criteria. 1) I want adjustable sights, 2) I prefer to limit barrel length to between 3"-6", and 3) I do not want a modern-day S&W (long story short - I had several pr...

I'll throw a wrench in the works and recommend a S&W Model 28, the Highway Patrolman. Personal preference between the 4 inch and xis inch barrel.
