[QUOTE="348Winchester, post: 3134940, member: 11952"] I often hunt with antique rifles in odd or obsolete calibers. This year I hunted with several different combinations. Opening day I started off with an 1894 Winchester sporting rifle with a 26 inch octagon barrel in 32 Win. Special manufactured in 1903. At different times throughout rifle season I hunted with the following rifles/calibers: 1895 Winchester 30-40 Krag (killed a large doe using a Western Silvertip cartridge that was at least 60 years old. 1895 Winchester 405 WCF. Remington Model 14 30 Remington. Wounded and lost a nice buck, still sick about it. 1886 Winchester 45-70. 94 Winchester trapper 45 Colt H&R Buffalo Classic 38-55 WCF Model 71 Winchester 348 WCF. Model 94 carbine in 32 spl Model 94 carbine 25-35 WCF. I really enjoy using the odd/obsolete calibers for a different twist. It's also makes for interesting conversation starters when someone asks what kind of rifle it is. [/QUOTE]
