It will be a bit, but I want to eventually add a 64 and 65 to my 71s. I have a 92 in 32-20(along with a 1903 SAA) and a 94 in 38-55. I know nothing of the 218 bee(except it costs a fortune to get) or a zipper or a 25-20 or 25-35. For some very odd reason a 30-30 has never appealed to me at all.
Any suggestions or preferences on these calibers?
The 65 is the same style of action as the 71, so I'd go that way.
If you're not a traditionalist, IIRC there was a really nice Browning 65 in the Gun Library at the LaVista, NE, Cabela's within the last 2 weeks. I wasn't interested, so I only saw it in passing.
