Anyone on the forum that has a Lone Star Rifrle ?
Mine I wanted for hunting so I asked for a short barrel.The machine wouldn't make one less than 28" . So I got that but the heavy ostagon barrel was a HREAVY octagon. Total gun weight 9 lbs but all the weight is in the front so a bipod or tripod is needed.
With smokeless 300 factory it works very well on deer.

What caliber did you get?

45-70 of course ! That rifle and my 1885 Browning are fed Barnes 300 all copper .They are great as well as Swift A-frame.

Great, that big hunk of metal does wonders in the field.
