Well I went ahead and bought this. Winchester High wall in 45-70.
Actually it isn't this exact rifle because now they are out of stock and I can't get a picture. Mine has the 24 inch barrel. My buddy has been trying get me to buy one all fall , but I can't find one in the store to check out fit and finish. Well the local shop got one in with a price of $1300. After fondling it my buddy bought one in 38-55. I caved in last week and ordered it. I got it for $775 out the door, so it was really hard to pass up. Davidsons has been discounting this higher end guns because they are not selling. Now all I have to do is sell some guns to replenish the $400 I took out of the savings account ( the non gun kind) to cover it.
Well, think of how much WORK you saved yourself, not having to fuss over what gun to buy all the rest of the year, because we all know you surely won't buy another gun all year, now. . .
I'll bet it's a shooter, and will be lots of fun.

Doctors for Sensible Gun Laws "first do no harm" - gun control LAWS lead to far more deaths than 'easy access' ever could.
Absolutely gorgeous rifles. I hope to hear updates after you start shootin' 'er! I would like to get one myself.

Where else can you get education and counseling like this for free Nice rifle thats too bad you gotta sell other guns tho.
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres
250 Savage... its what the 223 wishes it could be...!
Nice rifle in the best caliber. There's so much you can do with the 45-70, from "quiet loads" at 300 fps to well, you know, the "shoulder busters". I especially like it when the big 400 gr. bullets hit the dirt, its like a mini explosion-----no guessing where the bullet hit.
Sure is neat gettin' a new toy. Its something we all need to do from time to time.----------Sixgun
