What a cool rifle. I've heard that when Ken Water's developed the cartridge, he was trying to beat the practical hunting trajectory of the 30-30 Win. by 100 yards.

Very cool. Would have absolutely loved to have this setup back in my hunting days.

A great rifle from a great seller and a lifetime of components.
I am always looking for factory wood stocks!

Are the 5 boxes of newer ammo spire points, not flat points?
Oh, and believe it or not, deer bite. Fairly hard.

Nice rifle , and it doesn’t have that obnoxious extra safety button that Winchester added later. Good luck with your sale.

All Sierra 120 grain Flat Points in nickel brass. That makes sense. Just wasn’t sure since those 5 boxes didn’t have the “FN” designation on them, and the picture shows spire point. If the buyer doesn’t take all ammo, or brass, I’d be interested in it.

The 7-30 is a good round. I have taken some nice whitetail bucks with mine. I have a Winchester 94AE and a Marlin 336 custom built by Ranger Point Precision - a real nail driver. Both are chambered in 7-30 Waters.

Good for you. That one had me looking, at it and others on GB and GI. The ammo and components made that one!
