My .30-40 (left) and .45-70 (right), guarding an original Hepburn (not mine) in the center:

The .45-70, left, and the .22-250 in my avatar, right:

The .45-70 has really good figure, on both sides. It also seems to shoot well, though I have to admit you better hold on with maximum loads smile

That bottom Cooper is amazing.

270 WBY, bone stock except for an aftermarket set trigger. My 'smith can usually get a good trigger adjustment on a No.1, but this one wouldn't yield.

The barrel quality makes up for it though. grin

Model 1885 Browning in 260 Remington. NIB with striking walnut. I'll have pictures soon.


Throttle fixes everything. If it doesn't fix the problem, it’ll end the suspense.

10pointer,
That is some pretty creative checkering. I've never seen anything like it. Who did it? I think I could really get to like something like that.

The Stevens 43 is way too cool. I would love to have one of those.

!0-pointer, I'd also like to know who did your Ruger custom rifle, and what caliber it is. Engraver? Barrel? Don't just tease us, man!

Lee's 25-06 ruined me. Wish he'd post it. Me thinks I'm the only fan of the #3. (.358 Win)
