My first was a .45 percussion I built from a kit, I gave it to my uncle. Then I got a Winchester 94 but it got stolen, I built a T/C left hand .54 Renegade that is at the gunsmiths getting fitted for new glasses, it’s getting old like me. I got a Winchester Model 66 Yellowboy made by Uberti in 44/40, I reload this with FFFg
.
I spent close to two weeks trying to talk myself out of it and looking for bad press and negative opinions but it just served to convince me that I was getting a fair deal from my gunsmith and his recommendation of this rifle was right on.
So I’m laying down the cash for a Blaser Professional R93 with the left handed bolt in .270 win. We’re just waiting for the left hand bolt to come in. I chose this rifle for its bolt technology and quality but really because when I picked it up its balance, feel and ergonomics made it feel like it was an extension of me, I’ve had that experience with guitars but never with a rifle before. I figure the money will soon be gone anyhow but this rifle will last generations.
