Win 92 25-20
Offered a Win 92 25-20 today. Bore is perfect, metal is good, wood has many dings, works very smoothly much more so than a Rossi. $795 - They made them nice in 1917. What do you all think?

Is it a carbine or rifle?If it is nice I would jump on it quick. I have a 92 rifle in 32-20 made in 1917, bought it from an uncle in early 1950's.They are slick shooting and don't cost alot to reload.I think Kirk has got some good 25-20 loads worked up, as some others here have.

I like the fine little cartridge so much that I have three of them. 12.5 grs IMR 4198 under a 75 Speer FN and you are good to go.

I appreciate the thought Junior, it is true but, it was a take it now or the opportunity will pass. Sometimes these things come up and you don't have $900 free which is what it would be with DROS tax etc. I did get to see it and we'll see a good friend of mine may get it then I can shoot it anyway - he is the one who dropped of his new Shiloh with me for a month to shoot. It was interesting to see how nicely it was made.
I am thrilled to have gotten the Ruger 3 screw 45 Colt. Of course here in Calif. (sorry Junior) where the dems make the laws I can't get it until Nov 1. By the way, they just tried to put a bill through that the only pistols that could be sold must stamp the serial number of the gun on the case upon firing. Arnold shot that down. There are a number of pistols we can't get because they haven't been submitted for the drop test. The manufacturer must pay the thousands per individual model to have them tested. This type of thing could be what awaits the rest of you in the other 49. Don't worry though they are always thinking of more.
