Some really neat rifles here. I have a Winchester Model 61 that my brother gave me, and I remember running plenty of .22 shorts through it back in the day (though not the splatter bullets). It's a S, L, LR model. He bought it at an auction sometime in the late 40's or early 50's. He and my dad were there and didn't find out until the auction closed that they had been bidding against each other from opposite sides of the room! I think they drove the price all the way up to $40. It's been a good gun.
