Getting within range to shoot these old iron sighted guns is the challenge. Here is the result of this morning and stalking in the heavy snowfall. The rifle is a special order Winchester High Wall with double set triggers, shotgun butt, Sling eyes and all in a rare caliber 25-35...

This Winchester 53 was my FIL’s rifle that he bought off a native in 1955ish. He was working at a logging camp and saw a native on the beach with the biggest black bear he’d ever seen and decided then and there that he wanted that rifle so he made an offer the guy couldn’t refuse. I don’t think of this little lever gun in 25-20 being a bear gun but anything is a bear gun if you put the bullet in the right spot. I have his Sako heavy barrel “Seal gun” in .222 Rem Mag which has taken several big brown bear over the years. Nice job Shrapnel and that’s a cool picture. �Politicians are the lowest form of life on earth. Liberal Democrats are the lowest form of politician.� �General George S.
