I LOVE the 24's! Dang George, I was at the same gunshow on both Saturday AND Sunday! We probably passed one another like two ships in the night..... :shock: :lol: It was one of those gunshows that I just couldn't find anything to buy and I had money burning a hole in my pocket! Came home with some n...

They reported on the news tonight that it is NOT magma moving around under the mountain. Instead, they are saying (somewhat dismissively) that it is two plates moving against one another. Now correct me if I am wrong, but isn't that BAD news? Isn't that where the big quakes come from? :shock: geobru...

I shoot at a couple rock pits where I can reach out to about 200 yards. So, I shoot a lot of rocks.............. :lol: But much of my shooting is paper punching and I also like to take a case of pigeons and set them up at varying ranges out to 200. That is mostly Levergun shootin', the .44 mag/spec,...

That's good enough for me!

If YOU like it and don't have a problem spending the money on it, it sounds like a good deal to me.

I can't afford to buy a single pound of powder at a time. I try and never buy less than an 8# keg and preferably 4 of those in a case :shock: A handloader will save huge that way.

The last bull I killed with a .30 cal was with a 180gr Winchester silvertip. It did a great job on an elk that was spooked when it came running by me at about 300 yards. I've never been a big premium bullet kinda guy, instead I am a cast bullet hunter. Most all of my friends who use a .30 cal use a ...

About 30' from my bed to the coffee pot...... :lol: I'm retired! :o The wife, who is a grade School teacher has to drive 9.2 miles to work.

1 of only 2 jacketed .44 bullets that I use for game. My #1 choice is Remingtons 240gr JSP, #2 is the 240 XTP. Great performance on both deer and elk from either rifles or pistols.

For 99% of my overall shooting AND hunting requirements are met by my cast bullets.

All of which brings us back to the Model 71 and sharing with your son.

WW's are fine as is. I can run them as fast as 2600fps (though rarely) with a gascheck of course. Mostly I mix WW's with pure lead about 60/40 with 1% tin added and still run them around 1800fps with the most beautiful mushrooming you ever saw IF you are able to hit something big enough to keep the ...

After 30 years of powerlifting, I have lost a bit of wrist flexibility. Therefore the pistol grips are MUCH more comfortable. However, I bet less than 10% of my leverguns have pistol grips....

For 'bout 5 decades I've used 9grs Unique and a 150 cast. Never jacketed. Faster velocities with cast, less bore wear, cheaper and just all around better than jacketed at slow(er) velocities.

Well, I'm certainly impressed. Another thing that struck me is the weight of this thing. No alloy at all...all steel. Hefty little boat anchor. The same way I was was struck about the standard .44 special FT's, Wayne. Hefty! They may be small and compact, but are hefty little hippo's :D Both of my ...

there is something unidentifiable about the 71 that whispers of well worn gun shops, ones with creaking wooden floors, and air tinged with the aroma of cigar smoke, walnut and Hoppies that I find a comfort. I take it out and hold it occasionally, and drift off to an imaginary place along the Yellow...

unless I really need to shoot out past 200 yards I'd just as soon use a 10-shot levergun with a tubular magazine as a 20-shot bolt-action. If I really thought I needed more shots than the levergun offered, I'd want a semiauto anyway. As a 'lefty' in love with Marlin 1894's in .44, I couldn't agree ...
