Who is Ron Spomer
For 44 years I’ve had the good fortune to photograph and write about my passion - the outdoor life. Wild creatures and wild places have always stirred me - from the first flushing pheasant that frightened me out of my socks in grandpa’s cornfield to the last whitetail that dismissed me with a wag of its tail. In my attempts to connect with this natural wonder, to become an integral part of our ecosystem and capture a bit of its mystery, I’ve photographed, hiked, hunted, birded, and fished across much of this planet. I've seen the beauty that everyone should see, survived adventures that everyone should experience. I may not have climbed the highest mountains, canoed the wildest rivers, caught the largest fish or shot the biggest bucks, but I’ve tried. Perhaps you have, too. And that’s the essential thing. Being out there, an active participant in our outdoor world.

All good early Winchester Rifles were designed by J.M. Browning. The man should have a national holiday named after him.

Well yeah but your missing the fact he didn’t have anything to do with the 1860 Henry or the 1866 Winchester. Without that foundation he would have never made the 1886 and the derivatives there of. None of Brownings patents we’re “cutting edge”. He was great at innovation in a simple and efficient design. However he didn’t invent lever actions pump action semi auto pistols or any new operating system (with the exception of early gas operation). I don’t mean to take away from he genuine Genius that was John Browning. However he didn’t do anything that didn’t have some basis. And this is just the way most inventions work. You modify you contribution and make your work known. There were also incredible engineers that turned his prototypes into a gun that could be mass produced fir profit. That is a hugely important job that is guaranteed to get under appreciated!!!

I own two 1885 Winchesters, an original in .32-20 made in 1889 and an Uberti made version in .38-40, both low walls and both are excellent shooters. The .32-20 is capable of one hole accuracy, not bad for a gun made a couple decades before the first airplane left the ground.

I got the Uberti high wall in .45-70. I have killed 99% of my deer with it for the past 10 years. It gets me in the woods a week early (primitive season) and I almost always kill all 3 or 4 I need for the year in that 1 week. I stalk with it and just use iron sights, but man that 300 grain bullet always drops em. Even got a doe at 120 yards last year

The rifle arrived today and I dialed in the scope just a couple hours ago ru-vid.comUgkxQt2uORDRfFOVSrO4idv4B90ThT6EOnEL . I haven’t shot with a scope in probably 25 years. The X on the left was my target. (the shot almost in the bullseye on the right X was my father in laws first shot after I made adjustments) The two shots circled are my first 2 shots. Then I brought it down - shot once. Then brought it over to the left. From there zeroed it in to dead center. This all was from 25 yards out. Follow instructions carefully when mounting the scope. So far I'm very happy with the purchase.

Thanks for the historical intro to young John Moses Browning.

I have a low wall in 22 Hornet. With handloads tuned to the rifle, it will make 1/4" cloverleafs on a good day. Factory ammo makes huge groups. That's the problem with rimfires, you are at the mercy of the ammo manufacturers. I fired a 20 shot consecutive string without stopping to let the barrel cool down. I put 10 rounds inside a 1" ShootNSee spot, and on just barely outside.

My 1885 Winchester/Browning in .270 caliber shot at the top of the target also using the Talley Mfg. scope base. I fabricated a .031" thick brass shim for the forward foot of the Talley Mfg. scope base which brought the shot group down below the bull's eye when the Leupold scope vertical adjustment was set in the middle of it's range of adjustment. Just a few MOA clicks put the bullet group right in the bull's eye.

Well, I have a heavy barreled Browning B78( miroku) that purchased for 800.00- Canadian. The stars must of aligned on the particular day I bought it. This one is a .270 wcf and I take it everywhere. Shoots bugholes and I have also cleaned out the barrel channel. It is heavier than my synthetic/ stainless turnbolt rifles but is very compact to carry horseback or afoot. It is 38ish inches long and has a 24" barrel. I might even shorten the barrel. One thing for sure, when you pull it out, people notice it. It's short overall length makes it so portable, can carry it across my lap when horseback.

I have two. An italian replica semi Schuetzen and a Miroku Traditional Hunter . The Uberti does not cock on closing, you have to close the breech and cock to fire . In the Miroku (Winchester or Browning ) there is a little trick you didn't mention , which improves handling safety and helps if you are wearing gloves . You actually never have to touch the hammer. ( that's probably why Browning made it so small ) When you load the gun , while you are lifting the lever pull the trigger , and the block closes without cocking the hammer. When you decide to cock it , just lower the lever a little , then pull it up and the hammer is cocked.

If a shooter/hunter can get enough time on the range you'd be amazed at just how accurate this action is! I'd have no issues taking one out in hunting season! Make mine a 7mm08 caliber or any in the .280/7mm range for that matter.

I'm not a big fan of cleaning barrels I'll oil them up with a patch and make sure it's kept well oiled but I find when you clean a barrel really well the accuracy changes or goes away till you foul it out and then it goes back to tight accurate shots. When it gets overly dirty then clean it and start the process over again.

Pull it back into your shoulder harder. The reason for putting pressure on a Ruger forearm hanger is so the forearm can be free floated, since the screw is designed to pull the forearm into the barrel. I can't get a Ruger to shoot if I don't hold the forearm in my hand. Don't know why that is, but Ruger says they are designed for that.

As far as cleaning I had a heck of a time getting rods that would go down the barrel of my 17HMR but finally got one that worked. I found my HMR did not like CCI ammo at all it would give me 2 inch groups at 100yards went with hornady and they were touching at 100yards so yeah ammo sometimes doesn't like certain rifles or certain rifles don't like some ammo.

My first rifle was a Henry .22 blued steel and walnut. 16 years later I just bought a Winchester 94 in 30-30. Cost about 10 of those Henrys but blue steel and walnut stocks just do it for me. I’m 33.

It looks to me that your sight plane from the right eye is in the lower part of the scopes front ocular. Center it by moving the scope down with shorter mounts and a cheek piece riser pad on the stock.

If you had a couple guys hiking super far carrying ammo and rifles this would be a real good idea to bring along and share the point being it would be a backup in the same caliber as your main rifle in case something on your main rifle broke especially after humping pounds of gear and ammo do not have to turn back

$1500 for a single shot rifle! It is a beautiful gun, but I think our definitions of inexpensive are quite different.

You know that's right. Could be like most Americans and live beyond your means with credit cards. ( wrong answer )

you should come to europe, where people buy rifles like the K95 Blaser - $10-12000 usd. Single shot guns (or kiplauf) is really premium weapons for hunters. I would love one, but this or a Nr1 would work to. $1500 is probably what any rifle today costs, and the compactness of a single shot like this is really tempting. To bad winchesters resellers are few in sweden, i might need to give my store a call and se what they can dig up. Would not get it in rimfire though, a 6 creedmoor perhaps or a 243.

@@jmkhenka 243 is the most underrated deer cartridge ever. You are on the right track with either.

I own a brace of 1885’s - .17HMR,, Uberti 45 Colt & a beautiful 45/70 - the .17hmr i have is quite dissatisfying in its accuracy - I’ve tried every brand & size of .17hmr ammo & just cannot get acceptable range accuracy from it - it is relegated to the back of my safe these days - my 45 LC is excellent & shoots sub MOA every time I get out out for a play using my hand loads -I currently have my eye on a new Uberti 1885 Courtenney stalking rifle in .303 - looking forward to getting my hands on that beauty.
