    Winchester 94 38-55....

    Please excuse my brag, but I fired in the Idaho state levergun championships this weekend using my circa 1901 Winchester 94 in 38-55. 60 round silhouette match and the match-winner fired a score of 45. I came in third with a score of 40.

          Well done sir...

          And done with a great gun
          It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

            Are neighboring state competitors allowed to attend? Especially if they have poor eyesight like me and are not going to steal any prizes from residents? : )

                  I'm sure that 38-55 caliber will make a come back any day now.

                      This was shooting at the iron chicken, turkey, pig, ram - all offhand? What distances ? Offhand is most challenging for me. 40 out of 60 dings would make me quite happy.

                        Will do as soon as possible. Got a bum knee and it's hard to get down the stairs to the gun room.

                          Yes, all off hand. Rams are at 200 yards, turkeys at 150, pigs at 100, and chickens at.50.
