I've got Rem Model 8 in 25Rem. Kind of hard to find shootable ammo so I turn the rim off and resize 30-30 cases to Rem 25 specs and trim. That little auto rifle is a hoot to shoot! While not expensive, the necessary loading hardware is available.

I really "f'd" that up! ............you'll also need the assistance of a lathe to cut the extractor groove. Minor detail, right?

I have a .223 in the same rifle. I'm not big on redundancy.

one of my all time favourites is an old JM stamped marlin 444s. It shoots very well, and just gets it done. My old Savage 99 in 300 gets a lot of use too.

Those are the calibers I have. 44, 30-30, 223 & 222. The 223 cuts tacks a fraction closer than the 222., but before I sell it, I gotta scrounge the Timney trigger out of it and into the .223. Will be swapping stocks also

Incidentally you'll probably never shoot a more accurate 44 Mag or 30-30.

Why anyone would sell a 788, especially in .222, I’ll never understand.
