Re: An Ode to the Lever Action Rifle

That was a good read, Art. Tks.
My first lever gun was a 99 Sav.in .300. I shot a whack of gophers and Jack's with it while in basic training, loading g my 110gr. Sierra HPs in the barracks using a Loader set of hand dies. My rockchucker & RCBS powder measures left at home. Weekends would find me driving around the 25 sections of the ancestral ranch in Southern SASK. WOW! Such memories. Thanks for stirring that pot, Art.
My grandpa Peter Sapergia bought that land back when the date preceeded 1900.
