Spring

I'm taking a day off for a little bass fishing with my son here in NC. The high is going to be 80. Next week, :D the highs will probably be in the 50s!

Winchester 94 AE, .45 colt

Hey everybody, I have a question - I have found a Winchester 94 AE in .45 colt, and it's about to bore a hole in my brain. Can anybody tell me about these? Reliability, value, anything. I'm not sure of its age, but it does have the rebounding hammer, but I don't think it has the tang safety. Every t...

Re: Round nose bullets in a lever gun

Mike, and to everyone else, thanks! So far, I have been using factory new ammo, but I am planning to start reloading in the next few months. I plan to reload as close to a factory load as I can. I don't care to experiment with reloads. Mike, I hadn't thought about how the cartridges lay in the magaz...

Re: Round nose bullets in a lever gun

Well, I took that beauty out this evening and fired about thirty of those round nose rounds, and of course, she shot like a dream, and no problems (I really didn't expect any). For years, I have wanted a couple of single action revolvers, and finally got one two years ago, and the other earlier this...

Re: Round nose bullets in a lever gun

Thanks again to all of you! I really didn't think I would experience this, but I was curious if anyone had actually seen this happen or know someone who has.

That being said, one thing I left out - a lot of the rounds I have are FMJ. Should I be worried about those?

Thanks again, everybody!

Re: Round nose bullets in a lever gun

I appreciate all the replies! I have already fired round nose ammo through this gun without any problem. I suppose Hikok45 has to pass those things along, as I have heard him say similar things about different firearms. I can't see how this would happen with .38 special or .357, but I thought I woul...

Round nose bullets in a lever gun

Hey folks, I'm new to this forum, but since I'm a lever gun junkie, I'm certain I'll enjoy it. I have a question for those who have owned lever guns for a long time. I recently watched one of Hikok45's vediows about a 92 Winchester he had recently bought. During the video, he made the coment that ro...
