Hunting with the 1873 Winchester rifle

The 1873 Winchester has a very unique place in my heart. Being a child I never dreamed about having a bolt action rifle, the rifle for me was always operated by a lever. Hunting with a cartridge charged the traditional way with black powder gives a special touch to the day as well. And if all these things are happening in snow? Well, that's just perfect. Let me guide you through a few days in the woods. Sighting, using the Ideal tool for making cartridges, target shooting, making a lunch from the game, all included in this episode.

  • Your earlier videos with your 1873 is what originally attracted me to your channel. They even got me back into shooting as I had given it up for 45 years. I now own an 1873 like yours as well as an 1892 Rossi in stainless steel, both in .357 magnum. I even reload with an Ideal tool not unlike yours and it reminds me of tying my own flies for trout and salmon. Both the fly tying and the simple hand reloading I find to be as enjoyable, if not more so, than the shooting and fly casting itself. I still no longer hunt or fish as I had my day, actually many, many days in pursuit of game and gamefish and I am content to leave them alone to flourish now. I don’t harbor any animosity towards others that still go afield so long as they are respectful and I think your videos show what I mean when i say being respectful. Thanks for another enjoyable look at how peaceful and enjoyable hunting can be. Keep on keepin’ on.

  • I cannot and will not try to add to the comments about this superlative video. It is as close to perfect as one could hope for. Like others, I am not sure I shoot to reload or reload to shoot, but this video touches all the bases, right down to passing on some of what you have learned to the next generation. I wish I had had someone like you to mentor me when I was young enough to learn, but I am getting up there (71) and that time has more or less passed me by. So I will watch and enjoy your videos instead. Please keep them coming as your time permits.
