Shrapnel, the wood on that gun has caused me to sin in my heart.

And the way he walked around the table like he was going to ask what happened!

A fine buck with a beautiful gun. Congratulations.

Congratulations, beautiful ram, Joe.
Love to see the lever gun still getting it done!

Glad to hear Mr. John is doing better. I have admired him thru his writing.

Very sorry to hear about Mr. Paco. Prayer and best wishes for him and a speedy recovery.

Got'cha. A good thing to remember.

Thanks!

Fine looking revolver Scott.

Obviously it works, but what does shooting the hot loads thu it do for the bore?

Fine looking and sounding guns and loads fellas.

Are you hunting with your levergun? If so, what caliber and load? I've been a pretty hardcore bowhunter in the past, but age and injuries are catching up to me. This fall I plan to at least hunt deer with my Win mod 94 in .30-30 with Rem 150gr. CLs. If I go after elk, I'll either step up to a 170gr....

Thanks for the warm welcome, fellas. At the moment I only have a couple of .30-30s and a .45-70. All modern guns, but of pre-1900 designs, which I like. My real interest is for the old lever guns and single shots. If it's got a hyphen in the name it interests me - .25-20 to .50-110. I'd make an exce...

Hello All, I have popped in and read here off and on for a long time. I had always planned to register but just never go around to it. So, I figured it was high time I should join in. I love lever guns and old cartridges, anything classic really, and I enjoy shooting as well as hunting. I'm looking ...
