Now THAT is very cool to me for the following:
My Winchester 1906 has to be one of the very last ones, and your 62 has to be one of the very first. I don't recall the exact answer I got from Cody, but it was probably tail-end production clean up of spare parts, as the serial number didn't exactly jive with the usual charts.
Relevant to this thread in that it is THE gun that I bought specifically to get me out of the accuracy mania I was in during my Highpower days. I looked at my heavy barrel, globe-sighted, magazine-converted Marlin 2000 that I used to simulate the large bore course, the spotting scope, the leather coat, mid-grade match ammo, etc... and said to myself "YOU have forgotten how to just go out and have fun with a rifle!"
That one gets the random, mixed assortments of .22, sometimes with Shorts and Long Rifles in the tube at the same time - if the can falls over, accuracy expectations have been met.
