Home Forums Lever Action Central Big Bore Levers Finally joined the .38-55 club

Have been watching for a .38-55 to call my own for a while, and when I found one at Cabelas in the button magazine configuration I like, I adopted it. It has less % finish than I'd like, but is solid with a shiny bore and was priced right. I have a couple boxes of WW jacketed ammo to try it out with but might have to get some cast lead flat points to load. Trying to decide whether I want to find a vintage tang sight to match my other old Winchesters, or stick with the semi-buckhorn. Hope to give it some woods time this fall.
