Firing a Winchester
B.B. Gunn shooting a vintage Winchester Model 1873 rifle in .44 WCF. The old gun was made in 1889 and has a 24-inch octagonal barrel. The bore is probably a little better than what you'd expect to see on a rifle that's almost 120 years old, but the rifling is good and the action is nice and tight. It can shoot great groups, as long as I don't mess up.
