    Bambi vs. 1886 Winchester.







    2:55 Limbsaver (I use one on Rossi '92 45LC for hot loads (loaded beyond 44 magnum power).

    7:00 Made in 1886, so he shoots smokeless in a black powder era rifle.

    12:20 Winchester co paid Browning $50,000 for the '86 patent rights.

    12:54 '86 is " the smoothest lever gun " (I don't know, have never shot one, but that surprises me).

    14:05 Bambi

    15:55 The famous '73 toggle length (which I always thought made the '73 the smoothest, and the '66 and '76).

    18:54 Reminds me of green brass casings couple months ago in one of my pistol belts .

    20:00 My Rossi '92 loads cartridges stiffly, not this lightly.

    26:00 'they made 160,000 of them'. And because they sold them for fifty yeaars or so, then it seems to me paying $50,000 to Browning for the '86 patent rights took a long time for Winchester to regain all that money.

    27:15 The 1892 Winchester design by Browning.

    If you shorten the mag spring it will make it easier on your "fangers"
    It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.
