Very interesting Steve,
Rimmed cartridges have been in my ken for a while.
However, I do not use Google Fool,
Best,
Chuck
I thought everybody used 'the Google'. Despite problems with several single shot rifles that shot rimmed cartridges, I kept at it. I now have a fully functional single shot 30-30 and a couple others. I think the only SS that shot well from the get go was my 45-70 No1.
Had a friend who had a Win. Mdl 70 in 225 Winchester that had belonged to his father. Only centerfire rifle he owned. Worked fine on Louisiana deer.
I never actually saw or held a Model 70 225 Win until the mid 1970s. I was at a gun show and this guy had a bunch of rifles for sale at his table. It had a few minor nicks, but looked like it was new from the factory. He was asking $150 for it, but I didn't have the money.
I thought of using the 225 for deer. Shot from a 225, a Barnes bullet would be the ticket.
