Thanks all for the comments. Mr Clements does very nice work. This gun was relegated to the back of the safe for years once I started picking up Bisley Vaqueros and Blackhawks...Now it will likely be the gun that is shot the most

Winchester Legacy Model, I think they were in .357, 44mag and 30/30. (EDIT) 24 in round barrel pistol grip. Nice guns but did have the cross bolt safety. I have one in 44mag.and it shoots pretty good. I think they went for around $475 back when they first came out. Around 2004 or so I think.

I had good accuracy with the Barnes .377 jacketed over a charge of RL-7. I used between 28 and 30 grns, this was safe/accurate in my rifles. Your mileage may vary.

Kind of what I thought .45colt, I figured it was a fair price but I passed on it. I did get a PM from another forum member looking for the Shop's info so maybe someone on the board here will get a good deal. :wink: If I wasn't in a "thin the heard" mode I probably would have picked it up. ...

Thanks Guys,

Not really in the market for one but was at one of my local shops today and saw they had marked one down to $599. It's been there a while but is a NIB. Just wanted to see how good a deal that might be.

thanks again

3t-

What have you seen for prices in your area on these. Probably not too many around NIB anymore so if you have seen a price on an almost NIB that might work.

What is a fair price in your opinion?

Appreciate the info

3t-

Ok, Just a wild guess here but to my thinking the tang site method uses 2 reference points. Rear and front sight and so has a different "line" of sight than the scope. The scope uses 1 reference point and has a different "line" when sighting. Now this probably makes no sense and ...

I can't help you with the holster idea but just let me say that I am very jealous

That is one sweet looking revolver. Is that from the new "Classic" series? I have been toying with getting one of those.

3t-

TooTech, If it is clean and functions properly it sounds like a good buy to me. You could probably find one for $50 cheaper if you really worked at it. Personally I have given up on the $25-$50 haggle on guns I want to have and shoot...life is just too short. I only dicker when I feel I'm really bei...

Thanks for hooking me up with Jerry, Nice guy. Problem is he gave me a phone # for another gentleman that has guns for sale...this could get out of hand.

Tutt, This sounds like a fun project you got going, it would be exciting being involved in building a rifle up to your specifications, especially such a classic design. I am interested in the idea of expanded cartridge offerings in this design. I'm not sure I could appreciate a 454 Casull enough to ...

Well this is sounding more and more interesting all the time.

Do any of you find that the 180grn is as accurate as the 240grn out of the 44mag?

Thanks Cowboy1, I'd be interested in hearing how your loading tests come out. MeanC, Good shooting. I have a sister to that Win 94 Legacy 44mag in your pic. Nice Rifles, actually it was my first levergun purchase back in 2003 or 2004. I guess you could say that is when I was first diagnosed with the...

2ndovc,

No info on an airline case...but if I'm not mistaken he would be able to break the gun down and ship the gun to himself pretty cheap if there was an address on the destination end that he could use. Just a thought.

Looking through my 44mag reloading stash if came across a bag of Remington 180 grain .430 bullets. I think that I had purchased them for some 44 special loads at one time. Does anyone have a favorite 180grn 44mag load? This would be from a Win 94 trapper, 1:38 twist. I have a good supply of 2400 and...

3t-

Thanks Paco. I do like those 300 grn bullets :wink: I was shooting some 300grn Hornady XTPs out of my Ruger 44mag Bisley Hunter and they were very accurate, surprisingly tame on the recoil using 19.5 grns of H-110. But man they would do a number on anything that happened to get in their way :o The g...

3t-

Guys,

Thanks for the replies, that is pretty much what I am hearing from others. The consensus seems to be to stick to the 240-260 grn bullets.

3t-

Hey Gang, I am trying to educate myself on this issue of 44mag barrel twist rates (1:38 or 1:20) and bullet weight. I am reading several articles and forum discussions that say bullets heavier than say 270grns are less accurate in the slower twist rate guns, all other variables being equal. Many dec...

Ah yes! Dad bought it new way back, before I was born. One that I'll not part with. When I have the occasional misfire it is usually crud or a dud round. Doesn't happen often but on occasion. These do need a pretty good scrubbing now and then. Keep cleaning and I think you will solve the problem. Ch...

Thunder50 I have had one for several years, shot it a bit and it shoots very well. Have not had it out of the safe for a couple years though. Griff is correct the bore on these will run large. Mine slugs with a groove dia of .379-.380. That being said the Barnes 255 .377 bullets shoot great but are ...

3t-

Tycer,

When you say Win 94 do you mean the newer post 64 issue? If you are looking for headspace fix on an older pre64 you can purchase lugs oversize by .005, .010, and .015. I have done this on a 1917 Win. 1894 30-30. and it works well.

3t-

Thanks Guys,

That is about where I figured it would be. Maybe I'll put together a little "package" deal and list it on the Classifieds board and see what happens.

Great little gun, it should go to someone who will shoot it more.

3t-

Folks, I'm thinking of thinning the gun safe a bit and am considering selling/trading this Win. 94 .357 Trapper. It shoots great but the problem is I just don't shoot it much. I have several Ruger Bisley 44mags and am looking to replace this Trapper with a 44mag Trapper. The gun was bought new by me...

3t-

Here is another idea on this. Could the Win. 94 be converted to 37/44 B&D? Looks to me like you would need to open the bolt face a bit, swap out the cartridge guides with those of a 44mag and possibly the lifter, have the chamber reamed. This would eliminate the need for the metal cartridge bloc...

Tycer, Had the same problem and ordered a couple spares. I too have been trying to think up a fix for this so that the factory spring steel stop could be removed. If I understand you correctly you plan to build up the lever to act as the spring stop does now? Doesn't the spring stop need to "fl...

Hey, Thanks for all the ideas. Lefty, don't have a chrony, but it would have been handy. I went out to the range this morning with a few rounds of 11.5 grns H4198 a few rounds with 11.7 grns, the 11.9 and some factory. All rounds shoot centered and smaller than 1 inch groups at 25 yards.

you could buy 15 decent $40.00 vacuums at walmart, use each one and throw it away after a couple months and still get more than the 2 years you are paying for.
