Put in a good bid. If you win the auction you'll be able to satisfy your curiousity! Yep, the very first Guns Digest Annual - 1944 edition.

Funny how times change...

In the Gun Digest of 1944 the Winchester lever action, in 30-30, 32 spl fare is referred to as a "High Powered Repeater". The next page also features a model 1907 in .351 wsl fare.

How in the world could people back then kill an animal without a .300 Win Mag?

I just don't get it....
