Lever Action Love...

I posted this in another thread but it surely belongs in one called “Lever action love”.

Filled the freezer with three does with my 1936 Winchester 71 this fall. (Overpopulated area). The .348 certainly shortens tracking a dragging distances. No meat ruined and really fun to use. :giggle:

Time to go the next step mate and get a Winchester 88 or BLR in 358. Not a classic but good cartridge.

Not a lever, but considering a Winchester 1907 I’ve come across. Built in 1908 and Chambered in .351. Still not sure. I’ll never get back to Africa if I keep buying these gems. :E Shrug:

I don't know which I'm more jealous of, the rifle or hunting an area of WI overpopulated with deer. That must be a great feeling to knock down a deer with an open sight LA. Nice job.

:giggle: Thanks. I never forget how fortunate I am to be able to hunt these areas. And I completely agree with the thrill of open sights on deer. My vision isn’t getting any better so that peep sight made it easy. Regular open sights I struggle with.

I also finished up in that same area with an ok buck on the last day of muzzle loader season. Freezer full!

Finally got some Peregrine 180gr Hogs loaded up. Hoping Santa might be kind and bring a Scrumbag a chrony…

Scrummy I've been told you have been a bad,bad boy so Santa is bringing you diddly squat.
I know the miserable fat bastard in red isn't stopping at my house because I've put a parking metre on the chimney. That'll stuff him up.

It's probably true.

Be careful of this Wolfen guy. 2 messages. Both trying to sell something. He PM'ed me trying to sell something and he PM'ed my friend on here trying to sell something. Fishy.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.
