    Winchester 94 deluxe short rifle

    Lucky enough to get my hands on one of these 30-30s. Only 5 delivered into NZ I'm told. 3 of which made it into Southland. I'm a buy to use it kinda guy so I'm looking forward to getting it out on the hill and knocking over some meat for the freezer.

    That's a lovely rifle! Will you annoy the purists by fitting a wee scope to it or are your eyes good enough to use the open sights? Are you going to load your own ammo for it or will it be factory only?

    Looking forward to some stories about your freezer filling adventures.

    Scope mounts bolt onto receiver so no drilling required, I have a .375 that is top eject and scope is fitted as said.

    Will leave it open sights, keep it original. I've got plenty of factory ammo as I've got a JM Marlin 336 aswell.
