Home Forums Lever Action Central Lever Actions - General Boddington WinM88 Rogue River Rifle Works?

I'm looking for more information on the Winchester 88 lever guns customized by Rogue River Rifle Works circa 2000.

I've heard Craig Boddington may have written a piece for Double Gun Journal, but can't find it. Anybody here familiar with where I might find published write ups on these rifles?

You may mean the article from Guns & Ammo May 1997. I believe there is a similar article from a “Recent” Rifle Shooter.
Let me know when you have these copied and I’ll pull them down and add the Frank DeHaas article on remodeling the Model 88..

Thanks for posting. That was an interesting read

I will take it down and put up the de Haas article.
I still believe there is a Rifleshooter article. I'll look around for it.

Frank de Haas wrote this one for the February 1961 issue of Guns & Ammo.
I have separated the picture page somehow.

I hate it when a writer includes photos of "custom" guns, and doesn't state it. Too many yoots believe that's the way the gun really looked.

All I can say, my 88 traveled quite a few few miles in a scabbard as factory,and killed more than a few deer and elk. I did glass bed it and did some smoothing up of the action

it seems to me that one of the gunheads here on the fire has or had a Rogue River 88 in 7MM08. Many years ago though, I might be wrong
