Good job!

I don't.

I use jacketed bullets with blackpowder and haven't noticed any issues.

I agree but I have read a hunting account from 1906 that talked about pull through rope cleaners for blackpowder fouling. So Boresnakes are nothing new.

Great Wild Turkey cartridge.

That's incredible that it still can hold a group! I know jacketed bullets will follow weak rifling where a lead bullet will just strip out.

Awesome!

I never heard of any Winchesters that were made in Canada.

Nothing wrong with hunting with a 38-40. It's a nice round for sub 100 yard hunting. I use my 1892 38-40 for hunting. My Grandfather used to hunt deer and bear with his 38-40. It is a 40 caliber...

My 1892 38-40 does the same thing. The firing pin indentations are deep but the primers back out a good bit. Oddly enough sometimes I have to try a second strike because the first one failed to fire.

And a Winchester will still be worth more.

Indeed!

I tried going to repro route with the Rossi 92. Just wasn't happy with it so I moved it along and found an original 1892.

I've even reused the primers and they worked!

It was Winchesters attempt at a Paradox gun. The major Gun makers in London were having some success at the time selling Paradox guns to hunters and adventurers headed to Africa.

I've popped out a lot of live primers. Never an issue.

I have the M1 Carbine too. My Rossi is going away as well.

That's a bit hard to believe. Especially considering I have both and the Rossi isn't close to the gun that the real thing is.

I have the Rossi 92 and it much prefers 38's over 357's. And really 357's shoot way too high to use anyway.

Had a Marlin 1894 Classic 25-20 that I wish I had never let go of. But somebody had stamped the number 7 all over the darn thing.

Real world price is around $700 I'm told. That 38-55 sounds cool!
