[QUOTE="woodnut, post: 3069108, member: 17593"] big johnson, you are one lucky dude! One, you got a family rifle and didn't have to pay a fortune to get it; and then you got lucky again and got all the reloading and ammo for it ...for a song! You need to buy a raffle ticket! Just want to remind you that the early 86s did NOT have the nickle steel barrels so you have to shoot lead bullets. The later ones do have that wording on their barrels. I have one of the early models in 45/90 and it shoots awesome to 130 yards. My has the steel curved butt plate that hurts to shoot; so I got a shotgun style stock to go on it and that really helped the recoil pain. Even with a light load of smokeless powder, those heavy bullets do cause recoil! LOL. [/QUOTE]
