It's on its way back. Said they replaced the cartridge stop. I am skeptical but hopeful. Will report soon.
I have had the rifle in my possession a total of 3 days since buying it in January.

Re: Frustration with new Winchester Miroku
I am sending photos with the rifle back to Browning. Hopefully this will assist them in fixing it.

Re: Frustration with new Winchester Miroku
"You still have a cartridge stop problem. But now it's the reverse of what you had before. Before, it sounded like the stop was not allowing a round to come on to the carrier everytime. Now it's allowing two to come onto the carrier. It appears they tried to fix the first problem by taking some...

Re: Frustration with new Winchester Miroku
I will try some other ammo I have on hand. The Fiocchi is 142 grain, not 140. My mistake.
Winchester Browning offered to pay for me to ship it back. I will try the other ammo first. Thanks to all for the suggestion.

I am shooting 140 grain Fiocchi. Today, when I got the gun back, I cycled rounds through but did not fire any.

Frustration with new Winchester Miroku
New Winchester 1892 Miroku in 357 Magnum has problems feeding cartridges from magazine to the carrier straight out of the box. The cartridge stop seemed to be malfunctioning. Send gun back to Winchester/Browning repair. Get it back two weeks later. They replaced the cartridge guide pin, guide LT, ca...

Re: Model 94 in 44 mag
I had a Marlin model 1894 in 44 mag and while it shot very accurately, it was jammer and got worse the more I shot it. In the 1980's and 90's the Marlin in 44 had a terrible reputation for being a jammer, and my experiences confirmed if for me. I had a Winchester model 94 in 44 mag. It was an angle...

Re: Welcomed home by a coyote...
I have had several in my neighborhood -- suburban -- and one tried to kill my dog a couple of weeks ago. Had my wife not been home, my 25 pound Shiba Inu would have been a light lunch. Last week, I chased it off again. We are keeping the dog inside. My weapons are at the ready but I am inside the ci...
