[QUOTE="scope-eye, post: 2062175, member: 21274"] Here is my original coyote rifle it was handed down to me from several generations it's a 30-30 Marlin. I remember my great grandfather he was a Blacksmith and when he came back from the war he had cases of 303 British ammo. I would spend hours with him in his shop, anyways He use to disassemble they ammo and pour the powder into a bowl and the bullets into a tin can, and then scoop the powder with a 30-30 case and level even with the top and then load the bullet that he had ground the tip off. In case you are wondering 303 British ammo is .312 that rifle fed him and his family for many years That's how worn out it is it must have 5000 shots that went though it that's probably why he could get away with it. I remember him having a good day of hunting and getting two deers keeping one for himself and then calling on the "party telephone line" and telling one of the less fortunate families in they area he was talking to where in the woods to go pick up there bounty. PS:I love that rifle when I use to cycle it when I was a kid it always made me feel like I was the Rifleman. Dean [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_0252.jpg"]236522[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
