My gunsmith is a cowboy action shooting specialist and he told me yesterday that while the new Winchesters are beautifully made, they are unsuitable for CAS competition since they have included so many extra safety features.

Too bad, but as I wrote on 6/26, the Uberti clones from Cimmaron, EMF and Uberti are beauties too. He showed me a Uberti 1873 straight stock in .357 that was reserved for use as a prize and looked fully as nice as Cimmarons.
