On page 41 of the Shooter's Handbook --- Minimum caliber for main match is 32............the only exception is 25-20....... Does this mean that an 1892 in 25-20 is a legal main match rifle, or B-Western?

I had one for a while. Look at the ergonomics - barrel axis in relation to stock axis, and the angles, then compare to your favorite current SG. It tends to rear like a horse and kick like a mule. finally traded it off. Just my opinion and experience....... I am not a big person.

Kirkpatrick Leather makes nice holsters. Long hunter used to carry them. The ones I use allow one to pull the pistol by the front of the trigger guard instead of only by the grip handle, and have a nice slight forward cant.

And the new model has the last three serial numbers engraved on the cylinder.

Too bad they stopped having the Long Range. That is a good range for that.

Read "The Earth is Weeping" by Peter Cozzens. the best treatise I have seen on the Indian Wars. they were soldiers, civilians and fellow tribal members.

If I have a high primer, I would estimate that 90 % are old winchester brass. If I disassemble the round and run it thru again, the primer is flat. Wonder why?

I would wonder if some goggles might cut down on peripheral vision and be a safety hazard?

I tried making some and they turned out satisfactory . The hard part is getting both the guide pin and the half circle at the top lined up.
