Man......what a great thing you are doing.

I have given away a few things in the pay it forward spirit but never on this level.

I have always been a fan of these rifles and have never owned one.

I would hope that my name can be in the hat.

Rube Burrows

I hope tons of people go see this movie. I want a real western such as this to do good so maybe more people will make some other good western movies.......Real Westerns.....not that Jona Hex comic book stuff.

Rube Burrows

I have one. No, it is not an original Winchester by any stretch of the imagination, but it is a good representation - and one heck of a lot less expensive! I haven't had any problems with it other than it kicking like a po'd mule - but that would be the same with an original too! :D Yeah, the gun d...

I have a movie theater right near my work.....gonna sneak off and watch it and then when I get home im going with the lady.

I hear its pretty good so shhhhhhh....im going to get it in twice tomorrow if everything falls into place. lol

Rube Burrows

Great post, thanks for the pictures. I still remember when my son shot his first buck while hunting Fort Benning, GA. Took three weeks for the grin to rub off. I know tha twill be the case. When he shot his first fox last year he thought he was the MAN. I had to kill a deer just to show him that I ...

I just got one last week and shot it this weekend. I really like it. Only problem I had was that the 100 round box of Winchester ammo I bought for it had the alum. rim on it and every now and then it would swell and I would have to take a cleaning rod and tap it out throuth the barrel. I first thoug...

Such beautiful country.

I use Trail boss for my 45 Colt Cowboy loads. I use 5.2 Grains with a 250 grain RNFP lead bullet and get about 700 FPS

Rube Burrows

Yes, I know its one of the great hunting memories we have so far. Him getting his fox was pretty nice. I cant wait for him to bag a deer of his own. I know he will get one soon. Almost got him a shot several times this year but trying to get the perfect shot so that its an ethical kill is a little h...

Well it was not a handload. I was using Ultramax Match 158gr JHP.

They got the job done.

Its a little Rossi 92 in .357Mag.

This year I have been rotating between some of my Winchester 94s in 30-30, The Rossi 92s in .357 and .45 Colt and Marlin .338 MX.

Rube Burrows

You guys have had some colder than usual weather lately, how'd that affect the deer down there? They seem to be moving pretty good. Last year they were not moving good at all. Didnt kill a deer at all last year. This year I have seen lots of deer already and some nice bucks moving. The rut has star...

Rube Burrows

Well took her out and shot her this weekend. I love it. It def needs some breaking in or an action job. You have to throw the lever pretty hard. I bought a 100 round box of the Winchester with the low "Alum"? rim. This ammo would get stuck due to swelling in the chamber. Other ammo functio...

Rube Burrows

Well took a trip to North Alabama to our family land. Its hard to beat being in the woods....enjoying the cold and everything else mother nature has to offer. Here are a few pics from this weekend. http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm30/wheeler331/61e1c827.jpg http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm3...

Rube Burrows

Good for you. Always wanted to shoot an '87. Saw a SASS shooter shooting one at a match and boy he could smoke that wagon. He'd load two at a time and was amazingly fast. I know some of them come with the two load system. This one didnt. I will prob. get it sent off and have it added along with act...

Rube Burrows

Thanks, I have always wanted an 87 Winchester. Just never came across the right deal. When I seen this one at the such a good price I went ahead and picked it up. Figured it I liked it I may look for an original at some point. The gun is pretty nice. I have less than 550 total in both guns.

Rube Burrows

Oh I'd def. want one.

Rube Burrows

Well today felt like Christmas because last week my GF ordered me a Winchester 1887 copy and it arrived today. She wont let me have it just yet since I wont give her her Xmas presents early. lol. I also found a super deal on a Coach Gun that has been worked over and is race ready for Cowboy shooting...

Nice post.

My son (8 years old) at the time killed this fox last Thanksgiving.

A big ole gray fox. She was a fat thing too. Sorry about the pic quality. Old cell pic.

Rube Burrows

Welcome to the forum. Lots of great info here.

Rube Burrows

Plus one on the dial. Im not a fan of the key pads or anything that would rely on batteries.

I like Liberty Safes but there are so many good safe companies out there which are similar.

Rube Burrows

Looks like a fun project. Cant wait to see its progress.

Rube Burrows

Awesome man. Congrats. I one day hope to be able to go Elk hunting. Thanks for posting the pics too. Good to see the bullet doing its job so perfectly.

Rube Burrows

Just one more reason not to ever visit that dump New Orleans ever again. I so wish that hurricane Katrinea had completely destroyed the place and washed, then mayor, Ray Nagin out of his "chocolate city" and well out to sea...... :roll: While I dont like a lot of the element there in the ...

Just an update on this case. They have "suspects" in custody.

Rube Burrows

Thanks....I will check it out.

Rube Burrows

Im looking for tips on how to fit my stock to my Winchester. What tools would make the job go as easy as possible? I know the obvious is to take off little increments since you can always take off more but cant put it back. Are there any tutorials out there?

Rube Burrows

Well congrats on the whole healthy turn.

Rube Burrows

Prayers sent above.

Rube Burrows

Nice shooting. Would love to get me some wild hog like that.

Rube Burrows

WWII Vets are disappearing every day. If you see a WWII Vet tell him thank you and show him there are people who still care. It will make him feel good.....and you as well.

Rube Burrows

Welcome. Nice rifles by the way.

Rube Burrows

I have had that link saved on my computer for a long while. Lots of great pics. I enjoy looking at Civil War pics. I had a lot of my family fight for the Confederacy.

Rube Burrows

Great looking rifle. Good to see it still doing work.

Rube Burrows

Really neat photo.

Rube Burrows

Very nice rifle and Welcome.

Im so jealous of people who have actual snow.

Pretty nice pic....thanks for sharing.

I enjoy the cowboy shooting. The people are awesome and will help you out so much. Other shooting sports I have found some of the people to not want to help a new person as much. Plus.....who didnt want to be a cowboy when they were younger :mrgreen: Well said! :D But..........Old #7 .................

Looks like a darn good morning.

In the original picture, the one that is second from the end is holding a Remington 24 .22. Don't see the name Hezzie very often. My dads name was Hessie, (the Dr. spelled it wrong on his birth certificate). My dad always used a Remington 241 speedmaster. Dave in TX Thanks. If im not mistaken the ....

Great pictures, I cherish the few old family pictures I have. I find it funny the son in law in the center stands out bad, just a whole one of these things is not like the others. Yeah, He must have just come from church or something. Who knows. In a book I have of Heritage of the county they live ...

Very true. Dont know if they were ever as blue as the new Liberty ones are today. I am sure theirs had some hard used before that pic was made and prob. well after.
