A). JUST like S&W brought the classics with a very high price (but worth it to consumers) - they could bring back a line of 71’s.

Then Hornady & Nosler could step in and fix thier mess, with even better brass.




If I recall, Browning does not make the ammo or brass, as that is still done by Olin which retains the Winchester brand name for those.

I do agree that we need to press both companies to do a run of proper 71 stuff, though with only about 47,000 of the original 71s plus the recent modified copies, plus some Italian knockoffs, there is a small market compared to items using more popular cartridges.

Believe me, I don't like it either..

NEVER BE ENOUGH DEMAND FOR THE 348 WIN. STUFF, I do own a nice 71 deluxe 348 win.,i do I agree would like to see it happen but it won`t, but it does make my 71 worth more since this gun is no longer made.
