Last Mohecken topic about cutting firewood brouht this to mind. I cut a lot of firewood as supplimental heat in the winter. I spend a lot of time in the woods Spring and Fall cutting wood. I found out years ago that if I don't have a firearm on me that is when a I see coyotes or skunks that need to ...

It happens. You can't go wrong with a 39.

Nice job! I having been looking into an old sewing machine for leather also. it would come in handy.

Sixgun, what country do you live in where you have to have your vehicle's brakes inspected for a sticker? Or is it like the stickers I would give my kids for doing a good job!

BenT

Married 31 years in June. Have fun with the kids and ask them if they have change for a $2 bill.

BenT

Pretty common procedure, my BIL got his done two weeks ago. It will be great to be able to see again. You got this.

BenT

One of my favorite games. Get an old gun to shoot again. Of course you took it to the next level with cartridge box.

BenT

It is nice to have options. I like the fact that Henry stepped up bringing alternate cartridges to leverguns after Marlin stopped doing it. I was thinking about buying a Long Ranger in 6.5 Creedmoore for my nephew. I would prefer one in 338 Federal for myself. It's not like I need another caliber in...

I bought one in January and like shooting it. It has less muzzle rise then other 9's and easier to get back on target. I like it better than I thought I would.

BenT

Deleting the bookmark and adding it again after logging in worked.

BenT

Nice find. The condition looks the same as mine in 35 Win. The 1895s are my favorites. Much better balanced to carry than the 1886.

I have been shooting my 22/45 with the heavy barrel for over a decade. It is very accurate and reliable. I can put any 1911 grips on mine. I use the pachmyers.

This is the first site I ever became a member of. I remeber that I was in Virginia for three weeks for work. Sitting in the hotel room one night and ran across this site and I thought wow here is a bunch of Levergun throw backs like myself. It was very refreshing. I have learned a lot on this site.

BenT

Loaded 500 rounds of 32 H&R last night and I think I might actually finish restocking the 99 savage.Been putting a thin coat of Linseed oil on everynight and letting it sit by the wood stove. Social distancing comes natural for me. Spent Sunday afternoon cutting firewood.

BenT

I have had 3 of them in three different calibers and never had any problems with them. I still have my 308 and it is one of my favorite leverguns

BenT

We have one in our wood duck house. The wife went up the tree to clean it out and the little guy was crouched in the corner trying to figure out what was going on.

BenT

Ruger 96 is the Starling gun next to the deck door. Plinking is done with Ruger 22/45 and Marlin model 39. I have plenty more to shoot but those are the go to guns.

BenT

Looks like a HOOT!

BenT

Simple Green and hot water in a Hornady sonic cleaner is what I use for cleaning gun parts

BenT

You don't need to take the bolt out to work on the trigger. I just replaced the trigger return spring with a lighter one and dropped the trigger pull by 2 .5 pounds. They use a very heavy spring to push the trigger forward for reset. I beleive I had to remove the rear pin in the receiver. Which has ...

I would look into necking up a 307 , 356 case to 375. It should fuction through a 94 action.

BenT

Corona virus is always served with Lyme disease!

Pull the tips off the bullets and try it. Take the bolt out and play with different angles of the carrier. It might be lifting the cartridge too high or not high enough. Its a fat cartridge so the angle has to correct to enter the chamber.

I have always had my land open to young hunters. Right now my wifes coworker husband and son were hunting public land with out much luck. I invited them to hunt my land and the boy hunted everyday and shot a 4 point buck and doe. Very excited for him. As far as hunting my daughter had this same prob...

My model 81 in 308 likes Rem 150 grain core locks.

BenT

The 375 barrel I have has front ramp sight not a dove tail, so that might be a better option. I beleive Jes can cut you dove tail for the forend cap.

BenT

The Win 94 BB 375 barrel measures .610 at the muzzle. So this shouldn't be a problem boring out to 38-55. It has a barrel band so it doesn't have the holes for the forend cap.

BenT

Hats off to Mike D. He was a great guy. I am glad he shared his time with us.

BenT

I bought a 350 Legend upper from Bear Creek Arsenal for $225 for a winter AR build project. At that price I can play with it this winter and see how it performs.

BenT

The Ruger PC carbine comes with a second magwell that fits Glock mags, so if he likes Glocks. The standand mag well accepts SR9 mags and I believe the Security 9. I have a SR9 that is one of the reason I bought the PC carbine. But I really like the PC carbine and recommend it to anyone. Plus they ha...

Nothing better than putting the sneak on a buck. It's a great feeling. Great picture and story.

BenT

I have Moultrie. They can be had starting at $50. I have used them for over a dozen years. The first one I had, the display went blank after 4 years. I sent it in and they sent me a brand new one of the current model as a replacement. So they stood behind their product and I have been buying them ev...

I use AA5 in all my standard pressure 32 caliber loads. 32 ACP, SW long,H&R, 327 Fed. For the 32-20 - 4.5 to 5.5 grains of AA5 with 115 gr bullet is a pleasant load. The accuracy is good ,nothing awesome, good for plinking. I will be trying Six's load of 4 grains of Unique and compare accuracy. ...

Like 2ndovc I picked up one of the Berretta model 81s that are coming in from Italy right now. Gander Outdoors has them for $220. What a nice solid little gun for that price. Fun to shoot. Found a used leather holster at the gunshop for $12 that fits perfect. I will use this as a woods walking gun f...

Happy Birthday Paco! Thanks for this website to prove that there are other people out there that like leverguns! I think I found this site in 2004 or 2005.

BenT

You could of at least crawled up the hill so it felt like you were hunting.

The next hunt out west I plan on doing is for antelope in Wyoming, never have done it. I just can't get any of my friends interested in going.

Happy Birthday GameKeeper and the rest of you Gentlemen. I hope you enjoy your day!

BenT

Got the day off. Going to do a little fishing this morning. This afternoon maybe stop by a couple gunshops and talk stupid, or smart depends on how you look at it.

BenT

I get about 8 MPs on my DSL. Netflix and Amazon works just fine because the way they compress the files. Live streaming something on the internet can sometimes have an issue.

BenT

Great pics. My friend and I will float a river during deer hunting. When we come to a horse shoe bend, one of us will get out and walk across the point and try to kick out a deer to the person in the canoe as they round the bend. I use a Win 94 Wrangler in 32 special with a saddle ring sling when we...

Looks like it needs a little freshing up , perfect to keep your Dad busy.

BenT

For skunks I use a shotgun. Shoot them in the head and then shoot'em again. Then you got about 10 minutes to dig a hole before they start releasing their perfume. The key is to kill them right away so they don't flop around and spray.

BenT

Spend a lot of time on a 29 foot C&C in my twenties. Never sailed the carribean. My friend got his licensing so we could rent a boat in the Keys, but he got married and it never happened. Have fun with it!

BenT

Good choice! My friends father road that bike until he passed away at 90 years old. He had a Honda trike before the CanAm. But it wass the Can ams power steering that kept him riding. You don't think about it but the trike took to much arm strength to turn it around in parking lots. I know you have ...

I have my fathers 742 in 30-06. The first deer I seen shot was my Dad with that gun. We were party hunting and walking out to do a drive. I was about 8 years old. I was following him as we walked past a big log and a doe jumped up and took off. My dad took a shot and dropped it. It happened so fast....

Dealing with CWD in Wisconsin since 2002. Been eating deer the whole time. I am not sure how bad it is for the deer population. I think the DNR allowing you to shoot as many deer as you wanted in the southern part of state affected the population more. CWD has still contuinued to spread.

BenT

I have 2 Rossi leverguns in .357 Mag and love them as my 158grn handloads chrono at 1,952fps in my 20" carbine and 2,005fps in my 24" rifle. I also have a Mini-14 that's a blast to shoot as well and I'd love to see a Mini 350. I think it would be a great item for deer, coyotes, and hogs a...

How do you get copies back off the site?

BenT

I see all the Star Wars and Marvel movies with my kids. Started when they were young and still do it as adults. Family time so the quality of the movie doesn't matter. I find them enertaining and will be seeing the new Avengers next weekend.

BenT

The BLR in 308 with straight stock is closest thing to carrying a Win 94 or Marlin 336 in 30-30. The weight and balance is excellent. I have had many BLRs in magnum calibers and other long action claibers. The long actions feels like a full size rifle. But the short actions with 20 inch barrels feel...
