GREAT rifle!!

The heavy octagon barrel model was the one I used for the SASS Side Match Rifle Shoots. VERY accurate.

Hey jack weren't you in WA before too? Its quite a trip to TX, and I vowed never to return because it was so hot and nasty. But if I had a free trip back there, them I might consider it. I have some funds on hold in a secure loan, and this month is my last payment. I will then get my funds returned and I have been planning a .357 lever gun. Is there a problem also shooting the .38 spl out of them as well? How much better is ballistics, like fps and range compared to a revolver with a 4 or 6 inch barrel?

I saw an article on the Uberti copy of the Colt Lightning .357 & .45 Colt Pump carbine.

That looks like a beautiful weapon that could also be used in Cowboy competitions along with the Lever Actions.
