Dad called me a couple of months ago and told me his neighbor was selling a Winchester Ranger 30-30 for $200. Never heard of it. Said it was a lever action 30-30. Tell him I'll take it. Forgot all about it until I pulled up to the old man's house today and he brought it out. Looks in great shape. Reminds me of a cheaper version of my 94. Stained hardwood. Blueing isn't as nice. Action seems smooth and looks to be in about 95% condition. Feels like I stole it for $200. Guy said he paid $150 for it 20 years ago.

I'll give you $220 for it.

That is a good looking rifle.

I'm scarred from shooting a 45-70 brake barrel when I was young. Are they as bad as I remember or is it because I was 110lbs when I shot it it felt much worse then it really was.

With the high power loads it has some thump for sure! You can shoot softer loads and it’s not too bad. I plan to get into reloading and make some subsonic rounds and get my hybrid on the end of it.
