Milton about 15 years ago I got hung up on Marlin leveractions and cast bullets . Since that time I make a point to kill a few every year with lever actions shooting my home cast bullets . This year I took three . One year I killed I think a dozen deer and all were done in with 444 cast bullets .

The cast thing gets me going every year and this handloaded buckshot thing in my old side bys is kinda neat as well .

I killed a two deer one year with old Marlin's from 1896 and 1897 again with my home cast bullets that was kinda neat .

Other then that I'm kinda hung up on the variouse 6.5mm and 7mm cartridges in Ruger #1's or bolt actions . Although at some point I have all intentions of getting a Blaser K-95 single shot with barrels in 6.5x65R RWS and 6.5x57R RWS .
