I think it looks interesting, to say the least - I think they are doing what any good company should - look at where the sales are at - then try to build a better mousetrap...
this is their attempt at S&W and Taurus...

AndyM

It has got to be the older lever action rounds...
32-20, 44-40, 38-40, 25-20

I do not know how many times I have read about their death in the various gun rags...
Granted you need to be a reloader to take full advantage of these rounds, but once you get hooked on them - you'll be a fan for life...

AndyM

I do not know - looks a little odd to me, but if you like it go for it...
Hacked up a pretty nice rifle...
thanks for posting pics...

AndyM

nice buck - and good job tracking - I bet that was fun.
Your buddy should be thankful he can call you friend...

I also have a friend who is color blind and will contact my Dad everytime he hits a deer with his bow and arrow to help track it, unless he sees it fall within sight.

AndyM

All great replies, my vote is for a nice broken in 1892 Winchester - that action is the cream of the crop in terms of Winchester lever actions....

Although my 9422 is slick as slick can be...

AndyM

I look upon caution at the 243. The way I see it, the round is not really really good at anything.... too much for my type of varmints and too little for big game... I will say to its supporters, I have seen it kill a few black bear and an untold # of deer...

AndyM

My Marlin guide gun with heavy cast, flat nose bullets at around 1800+ fps

should be able to take care of any trouble... I wonder what they tast like? probably chicken...

AndyM

Oh Man! I am still in hiding after Penn State got a big Ol' butt-whoopin' by Southern Cal.
I thought it was a slow game until after halftime, at least Florida can be considered an East Coast team. Although I feel Utah should get a chance to be national champs also for going undefeated.

AndyM

For me - it has to be the Winchester 1892 rifle, Full length barrel, full mag tube, cres.buttstock - a close second would be my 1894 full rifle, they both just balance and point perfect for me. I would agree w/ Hobie on the Winchester 88 feeling closer to a bolt gun. While I truely enjoy my Marlin g...

AndyM

Welcome - always nice to have another PA guy in the mix...

AndyM

now that one looks different.
almost Winchester 88 ish...
nice rifle, how does it shoot?

AndyM

very nice photo...

AndyM

Wow -very nice indeed!

AndyM

From smallest to largest...

22LR
32-20
30-06
45 colt
45-70

AndyM

I would also like to add a 25-20 or a Marlin 218 Bee to the mix and hopefully a few pre-64 Winchester 22's - a bolt action sporter model is first, either a 69A or 75 (wishing for a 52), maybe a single shot, and a pump later 1890.

AndyM

Wow - what a find - I have recently come under the spell of Winchester pre-64 .22 rimfires.. . My current wish list includes the bolts, pumps, and single shots, although after seeing this auto - maybe one of those also... Great find... The way it sounds you could probably double your money right awa...

AndyM

Good deal dad - I like your style and pick of boy/girl bb guns.

AndyM

i'd be interested - can you PM me or give me some more info...

AndyM

I have a leather Dillion pancake holster for my Glock 23, while it is not an IWB, worn with a jacket on top - it does not get noticed.

AndyM

yummy, looks like squirrel pot pie time.
good shooting, nice rifle, and pup

AndyM

Good shooting, that looks like a pretty big one.
thanks for posting the pics.

AndyM

I agree - I just wish more people would "get it"

AndyM

From right out of my safe...

Try "Getting a Stand" by Miles Gilbert. It's a collection of previously unpublished journals and records of the buffalo hunting era. Miles Gilbert is also one of the co-authors of the "Encyclopedia of Buffalo Hunters & Skinners". I believe 2 volumes are out at this point. Di...

I was about 8 years old when I received a Remington 572 pump .22 for Christmas. I had the usual Red Rider BB gun, the pellet Crossman pistol, and bow and arrow. I remember my Dad hanging an old rug in our unfinished basaement to stop arrows from my bow - i shot that bow for hours and hours.

AndyM

I own a Winchester 1892 in 32 wcf that was made in 1903

AndyM

Congrats to both of you - I hope this is the start of a lifetime of successful hunts for him

AndyM

Mine would be either my S&W 586 6" .357 I purchased shortly after I turned 21 or my current 5 1/2" Ruger Super Blackhawk 45 LC. Both are more accurate than the shooter allows them to be, easy to load for, ans both have taken some game with. It would be hard for me to give either up...

nice! great rifle and congrats on a good hunt.
I too am a confirmed doe hunter who loves to have meat in the freeze.
thanks for posting w/ pics.

Wow! What a deal - I have been wanting one of those for a long, long time....

very cool - way to go!
thanks for posting

I have a need in my shooting collection for a fairly accurate 22 bolt gun. With my passion for all things Winchester - I would like to own one or more of the following 22 bolt rifles Winchester produced pre-64. Thinking of models 52 (probably out of my price range), 69A, 72, 75. I would like the mod...

me too - I usually start my gunshow trolling after the new year. I try to make the York and Harrisburg show in the spring. I always get the itching for a new addition once tax return season is upon us.

AndyM

I think it depends on your definition of light. I consider a light load to be at trapdoor levels and load 28 grains of 5744 under a soft cast 405 gr. flat nose lead bullet to be my light load for a sharps replica and my Marlin 1895. A medium heavy hunting load would be a heavy dose of Re#7 under a H...

I received one of these for Christmas from my parents when I was about 8 years old. My father is a die-hard pump guy... 870 shotguns, 760 rifles - so he bought me the 572... I have tried for 26 years to wear it out but it is still going strong... to think how many 22's went down that barrel is scary...

AndyM

And there he was...... Gone....

AndyM

No I can't relate. I have 3 .30-30s (one of which is a SINGLE-SHOT! :shock: ). Wouldn't willingly part with any of them. Don't know what you hunt or where you hunt that makes them useless. Don't know why you'd post that here except to fire up some controversy. :roll: Absolutely not my intention at ...

AndyM

I have had good luck using Titegroup with lead bullets for plinking 45 colt loads. 6 grains of Titegroup would be perfectly safe in your 1873. I shoot these out of a 92 Puma, with good accuracy.

AndyM

great going! But where are the pictures...

I buddy from my hunting camp has used the same gun multiple times with much the same success of whitetail. He has an Aimpoint red dot on top and we call it the 358 short mag for the way it drops deer...

AndyM

GOOD GOING!

AndyM

Well done you guys, looks wet for you. Wow another 30/30 guy using H322, thought I was the only one here. Tell me how does it shoot group wise? Good pictures :D Nath. The old girl shoots pretty good for being 103 years old. With the tang sight, I only like shooting up to about 100 yards and off the...

AndyM

not nearly enough, yet....

AndyM

Well - I am back to the real world today after being gone from home for 1 week, hunting the Pennsylvania whitetail. I spent 2 days hunting with my father on a farm that is always productive and easy hunting for my 67 year old father. Monday 12/1 was successful, we both shot a nice healthly doe, a bu...

AndyM

I'd really like a henry reproduction in 44wcf.

AndyM

I always tell people to buy Leupolds...
2-7x, fixed 2.5, 1-4x, fixed 4x - all work extremely well for me...

Heck of a deal on the 1.5x to 5x Var-III -

AndyM

Good job, nice shooting, and nice buck...

AndyM

even with a "bad" bore - I do not think $400 - $500 is all that high for a 1892
