I sure hope you're passing your knowledge on to someone who appreciates it. Your lifetime of passion for these great old historic firearms is awesome to watch. What a beautiful ranch and your knowledge of geology is also really cool. That geothermal episode was great.

Waking these lovely old things from their hundred year sleep and helping them talk again is a special experience.

The old girl gave you some problems, but you got her cooking.

It is great to see an old rifle like that get back into firing condition.

The 50-110 is the Holy Grail of 86,s Don't see many of them especially the button mag guns. Thanks for the tip on correcting head space. My 40-82 was that way when I got it. Primers would back out. The barrel was a sewer pipe so I opted for a new barrel much to the lament of my pocketbook. Got it from winchesterbarrels out of Florida. It is a shooter now. That is a lot of bullet for a lever gun...

I loved seeing the process of restoring that piece to working order, very informative. I'm sure the owner was thrilled as well.

Здравствуйте !<br>БРАВООО ! ! ! 👍👍👍<br>У меня был Винчестер мод. 1886 года, .50-110ЕХ изготовления 1910г., даже помню номер, N-149577, ствол легко мог быть снят и, наверное, заменен на .45-70 Gov. (?). Охотился с ним, 50 лет , отличная модель Д. М. Браунинга ! 👍✌️<br><br>Кстати, узнал, что Вы работали в геологии . Я тоже работал в геологии в Сибири и люблю охотничье оружие. Желаю Вам Здоровья и Удачи ! ! !<br>С Уважением, Юрий. Сибирь.

where ever it is in Wyoming that you live, it is some of the most beautiful country i have ever seen. do you you ever sit out there looking at the land and wonder what kinds of things might have taken place there over the eon's of time....maybe John colter or some other mountain men camped out there on your land, maybe some native Americans had a village out there some place. these sort of thoughts would flood my mind every time i had the chance to sit down and enjoy a nice sunset. you are living the dream my friend. god bless you and those you hold dear.

1886 lever in 45-70 with 26" barrel is my favorite. Nice repair job on the 50-110. I've fired a Sharps falling block 45-90 and a Springfield trap door 50-70 but never a 50-110. 👍
