    I have a Browning 1885. I found a No. 1 and by the time I went back for it.....gone. It was 25.06. Gun shop said he had two 1885’s on order. .223 and .22 mag. I said put my name on the .22 mag I’ve got enough in .223. Well wouldn’t ya know it they mixed it up and now I have another .223. Beautiful gun. Should have jumped on the No.1!!!

    My uncle had a #1 in .25/06 that he hand loaded for and killed a pile of deer with it. A #1 is on my wish list for sure.
    I recently picked up one of the new Henry single shots in .308, slick little gun

    Reloading makes it a less hard on the wallet.
