Well since it is show and tell hour here are the 2 aforementioned rifles.
1 Winchester Model 92 25-20, made circa 1921 if I recall correctly

1 Savage Model 111 .270, no frills BSA 3-9 scope...

I love my Savage 111 .270. It's a great shooting gun and dead on accurate. This was my first shot at the range from 100yds. That's electrical tape on cardboard.

Yes there are big'uns here but the biggest issue is just how many of them there are. Florida is one of 4 or 5 states that are infested to epidemic numbers. My friend in the hunt club got game camera...

Nah. You don't need a cannon just a good shot. I hear that all the time but you just...don't. My dad always used a .22. I shot one trotting toward me with my .270 and it flipped him over backwards....

You're lucky it's not 25-20 like my Model 92. $2.00+/round seems expensive but you gladly pay it IF you can find it. Chambering a round sounds like ringing a cash register. "POW! Cha-ching. POW!...

Wow, John! Just...WOW!

I know I'm late to the party but THAT is just...WOW!

Ow! My wallet!!!

$69.99 for 20, plus tax of course. That's $3.50 a round. But, :shrug: at least they had them which is a rarity. Ifni brought home another hobby full of paraphernalia the...

Not so sure why all the ruckus. I prefer people DO know I'm a right wing gun toting nut.

We all know you can make statistics say whatever you want. Ever think that maybe people carry because of...

As collectors largely but a big reason is because we can. I would imagine that people in other parts of the world might have more if governments were not so restrictive.

One reason also that...

Wow! Really? I'm not arguing or even disagreeing. I just mean I didn't really think that fit the gun control criteria. I understand though. There is no winning that debate and really quick it is no...

Well now you've just gone to shameless flattery.

If that is indeed a "fact" (not saying it's not, just that there are lots of spurious facts and quotes floating around the internet) it is due in large part to the fact that we can.

Ahhhhh, government bureaucrasy. Ain't she a hoot?

I love the 25-20 but what I'd like to get in addition is 32-20 in a model 92. That caliber is much more readily available and cheaper. $64 for a box of 50 as opposed to $99 or more makes the...

I like the look of that Rossi. That might be another option I'd consider.

Here's my only lever action.

Model 92 Winchester (along with a Winchester razor) in 25-20 which I love except...

Love that wood. Beautiful grain to it

I used to hunt squirrels with a recurve when I was a kid. Of course I put a bunch of arrows where a squirrel used to be but I also bagged my fair share. That's all hunters had before the advent of...

Unless you can get the deer to stand in a row, flank to flank.

How's about $2.58 a round for 25-20 to shoot my Mod. 92 Winchester lever action. It's like ringing a cash register everything time I chamber a round. POW! Cha CHING! POW! Cha CHING...

Problem with...

The short answer Steve is that it depends on the state. I'm sure that Canada is somewhat the same but even though we are one nation we are a nation of affiliated states That are somewhat sovereign in...

"...land of the free and home of the brave."

'preciate the visual there Mark.

Not gun specific exactly but I just did a job for a guy named Garand. When he gave me his name I asked him if he was related he said that John C. Garand was his great uncle.
I just thought that was...
