    Nowadays I am doing black powder cartridges - Winchester 73 in .44-40, one of my favourite cartridges:



    If you thought old guns with black powder cartridges and open sights don't shoot very well, I have discovered this is not necessarily true....



    She gets out in the bush too - three deer to her name since April, all with black powder loads and soft lead bullets I cast myself from a period design.

    Well...I'll starve for about 6 months, but I had to get this Reeb DR from a friend. He's had it for 62 years and has lately taunted me with it, so I bought it.

    It's in 8X57J (rimless .318), and the scope is the original 3X Voightlander SKOPAR. I'll use it on two deer hunts this fall in Nevada and Montana. I've had to sell a couple of drillings to get it, but drillings are common now. Not this.
