local GS has a browing lever action, looks nice(I know looks don't mean much) looks new. shot me a price of $550, is that in the ball park?
I recommend lyman 454424 (255grain) over 8gr Unique, plenty of power and easy on your hands. Good Luck !!!!

I would make the ammo fit the barrel. had the same problem, used a 308 sizing die to taper the case. Good Luck

the saw is 20 years old? so the crank seals are 20 years old, they get hard, I would replace them for sh*ts and grins. I vote crank seals.
