    44-40...
    Old man has a model 1892 Winchester 44wcf which was passed down from my late grandfather. Made in 1907. Have around 30 rounds that are 30 years old left with it (been stored well and dry but when you shoot them you can hear the difference in the rounds when fired) but keeping all the brass as my efforts so far to find any 44-40 ammo has been difficult.
    Redundant or obsolete? One could argue both.
    Would love to come across some more rounds for it but not also not in any great hurry to try locate some more rounds as reloading supplies appear possible to obtain.

    Either way, would never part with the 44. It's in the family for good
