Scope came off of a .243 Ruger 77 and has seen very little field use. $75.00 OBO and we split shipping...in honor of National Cherish an Antique Day, not that a fair number of CAS members may be high mileage in age.

Brownell's black leather reproduction of the original 1907 Military Sling; the one that's become the standard among hi-power service rifle shooters and many knowledgeable hunters; the one that's sought after by collectors and restorers of pre-WWII military firearms and the one that's carried more guns, more miles on more shoulders than darn near any other. The sling is brand new and never used, sling only no swivels.. $50.00 and I ship...... https://www.brownells.com/gear/slings-sling-swivels/slings/competitor-plus-rifle-sling/

Winchester 1873 short rifle in .45...

There are just too many choices anymore. I recently bought a .308 and was made to feel like my sanity was in question. Many believe that the 6.5 ammo will cure what ails us. I say buy informed and get a caliber which can be found at a LGS or your local hardware store in smallish town USA. The 6.5 is a great round, but I am a fan of all the .30 caliber rounds. May dad took many animals with a 30-06, I have taken many mule deer and cow elk with a 30-30. I bought the .308 because of the short action, a lighter weight rifle that is easier to pack, the variety of ammunition available and its effectiveness. I do not need to shoot at 800 yards, the furthest I have shot was 360 yards at a bull elk with a .300 Win Mag and it worked perfectly. Too many bad things can happen when shooting extremely long distances. Become proficient and get what works for you. Remember all factory ammo is expensive and invest in good glass.

Pietta Firearms had a booth at Cowboy Christmas which is a part of the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas and shared with me a Lightning was on schedule for release in 2026. And that was all he knew, so I was told. At this point I feel it is a rumor although they had many fine firearms on display to handle and examine. We'll see.... https://piettafirearms.com/

I could not afford to shoot if I did not reload. I love the big bore handgun calibers, the cost of factory is obscene, As often as reloading equipment shows up on the wire, consult another CAS member who reloads and begin to roll your own. You won't regret it. I load 44-40 for a old Winchester I have no regrets....the savings will be huge.

Still dreaming for a pair in .44 Spcl in the barrel length of 7.5......

My favorites are my Winchester 94, from 1960 and my Marlin 336 Texan from 1969. In the new category, the new Marlin 336 Classic got my attention at a LGS. One of my friends loves his Henry - H009G. But these are hunting rifles, I have taken many a elk with my Marlin 336 T, using 170 grain bullets at less than 150 yards.

For the Cowboy or Cowgal who has everything..... I have a pair of never worn, never used Lindholm Bronze Sours. They are no longer made and are truly a work of art. They are a bit too aggressive for me to consider using on a horse, but the CAS cool factor is quite high. And the jingle bobs are real. Without straps, $275.00, with the J. Constanza straps, add $100.00. I will get shipping.

Maybe, depends on the type of bridle. In my case, it goes over one ear and absolutely not. If I'm out n the boonies I will carry the lead rope and rope halter on the saddle on a lash point and not on the horses head. I keep the head as unencumbered as possible. My reins are tied on with leather so they would break and I would fall off the cliff.....

I bought one last summer and have no intent to use it for CAS. All my loads are right at 1.50 in length and have never had a misfeed. For the bullet I am using the Hornady .357 158 gr SJHP and some Berry's 125 gr FMJ-RNFP. Never a problem one, it is a fun little rifle. Powder is 231 or Unique. I have no plan for an action job. Good luck, I absolutely love mine. Taking it javalina hunting in February.....
