I have a near perfect H & A. 32 harmerless. a S & W DA 4th model and a new Beretta Laramie 45 c, That's a Uberty and made to match a S & W New Model Three.
I'll bet there's a lot in your collections.

Seems like an art to me. Some pictures here show good detail and the full lenght. I can't seem to figure it out. Do you stay back a distance and zoom in to fill the frame? How about lighting? Maybe outside on an overcast day. Bright lights don't work for me.

Although I have a few, I've never been fond of carbines. It's hard for me to shoot a deer though the hart at 100 yards with one. Also the looks of a lever rifle makes me smile.

I shoot a lot of 45's. 45 acp. 45-70, 45-110 and three 45 Colt pistols and Now a 45 long Colt Uberty Special Sporting rifle. The 45 Colt fed many of the early Westerners. As a bit more of a challange, I think it's a worthy task. A 270 and a scope is to easy. The 45-70 was the task last season and it...

I'm planning on doing some work on the subject this season.

Africa? What's your game? You lucky dog.

I've been hunting now for fifty years. Last season I figured out how everyone but, me could hit the broad side of a barn.................For me at least, I climb in and shoot from the inside. I agree in Northern MN a 30-06 just might be the best all round caliber for white tail deer. I don't own one...

It's all good. If you shoot any of them, your'e happy. Get one that you like and shoot.

Their site says $3,300 add checkering it's $3,600. At Buffalo Arms the Pedersoli is $1,997 add the sights, it's under $2,500. I didn't say '' thousands'' I said a thousand. I'm sure the Shiloh is worth every penny.

Owen

I love my Pedersoli Quigley 45-110. My son and I shoot together at 600 yards and hit a 2'x2' gong target almost every shot. The gun is beautiful and has no issues at all, never did. It is a thousand dollars cheaper than Shiloh, there must be a differance and I'm too dumb to see it. Your going to lov...

I had one too. All loaded up. I loved it. I'd buy it back if I could.

Did Browning make there own production runs of the ones originally manurfactured by Winchester? I know they do a '86 and I think a '95. I know John Browning seems to have invented just about every good gun back in the early days of cartridge repeaters.

As I gave up the big bikes, I found out how much I liked exploring. I now ride TW200 Yamies.

That '94 on the bottom has quite a history. It had gone through a fire at a Alaska gun store in '64 or '65. I bought it at an auction as a lad 0f 15 in 1965 in Anchorage a year after the earthquake. I'm not sure but the quake may have been cause of the fire. It had no blueing or case finish. The sto...

I'll have to read up about those guns. Looks like I have a lot of reading. Usally I buy the gun first then read about it.
I guess when you go to 22's there are a bunch.
Keep it comming and when we're done , I'd like to see all of these in chronological order.

Owen

hightime

Oh my gosh, I forgot the Savage '93 and '99. I can't believe it. I love the 300 Sav. '99.

Owen

hightime

Maybe only cartridge repeaters. I'm not sure but, Vocanic Evans Spencer Henry '66 Win. '73 Win. '76 Win. Colt Burgess '81, '88, '89 Marlin '86 Win. '91, '92, '93 Marln '92 Win. '94, '95, '97 Marlin '94 Win. '95 Win. I don't know much about more modern levers like the Browning '81. Is there others? I...

Nice bike!!!!! I sold my goldwing. Too many deer here. I bought lots of guns.

Owen

Nice!

I shoot my 45-110 Quigley compressed loads with the '' cresent '' without a recoil pad. But that's blackpowder and weighs 14#. The Marlin does have a bad recoil with stout hunting charge and 410 grain bullets. I think I'll keep the butt plate it came with.

Owen

Thanks

You know you guys are good. I think I'm going to leave it alone. I already have guns with the other elements and the 45-70 is a meat gun. In the years and generations down the road , it will have the charm from what it's done. Last year was the first year of hunting for it and it did three whitetail...

hightime

Is this a problem? If I drill and tap for a front screw, will it strip too easy?
I don't find any offered, but there are some for "66's. I think they are the same.
I'd like a tang peep on my Navy Arms Henry 44-40.

Owen

hightime

I like this gun, but I wish it had a crescent but plate. a thinner forearm, case hardened and a cover over the bolt or a square bolt. I quess the round one is stronger, but it ugly.

It's still a great gun. Oh what it could be.

Owen

hightime

I'm not having trouble getting it around here in Northern MN. I use Goex FG and FFG. I shoot 45-110 Sharps and some 45 colt BP.
I like your ammo. I don't have much in 38. Maybe that should be my next mission. I've been limiting the BP to the single shots. I didn't want to mess up the lever guns.

Owen

hightime

Real nice! That's my goal. To shoot a buck a buck with the Model 8.

Owen

That's cool. Maybe I'll get another one.

This spring I bought someone's grandpaw's Model 8 , 30 Rem. at the local gun shop. They had four from someones colection. I chose to buy the 30 even though it's obsolete cal. It's perfect. I didn't think I needed to reload for it, so bought two boxes of ammo from Buffalo Arms for $80. I sighted it a...

The club of forum members is realy impressive. Real active people with interesting lives.

Thanks guys, this sounds great. I talk to my wife about guns. She says awhaw and then tries to talk about scrapbooking. I'll probably vist here every morn.

I'm Owen and I'm an addict. I like a lot of guns, but lever guns are my favoite. Dad left me his Model 99 300 Sav. and I bought Winchester 94's thru the years. I hunt whitetail now with a Marlin 1895 Cowboy 45-70 and have just bought a BLR MN Deer Hunters comerative. In a day or two my Uberty Specia...
