Default 21 engraving

Unfortunately, I do not know the identity of the engraver. Once I saw it I knew I had to have it. It has the most life like animal engraving I have ever seen on a gun.

Winchester may want you to send them the remaining shells.... then what have you got?... Nothing.

If you contact Winchester ask if they will accept findings from an independent lab.

This is a rough scan of Winchester's standard disclaimer on ammunition packaging. Was your gun "in good condition"? And can you prove it? Did you check the barrel for obstructions prior to firing this round? Or "excess lubricant"? If not, you have a slim case. Or none at all. Just my view of things...

Or, you could buy another M21 for less than the cost of a set of barrels. Sleeving one barrel wouldn’t be cost prohibitive.

You might pm Dale Medders. Im sure he has a set of ejector barrels he'd sell you.

Late to the party here. What shell caused the problem, the Kent or the Winchester?
