Might get a .22 for a good laugh.

[Odo]

Consider a pump action as well.

Don't buy the Remington as their a piece of pure "s**t" only rifle I owned for 4weeks in my life!!!!! Traded it as fast as I could!!!!!

[North East]

I cant believe what im reading North East wants something other than a 30-06!!!!!!

The .30 cals get a bit expensive to run sometimes.

[North East]

Just got back from town after having paid for a new Winchester (Browning) BL-22 lever action. Only cost $1000.00 so pretty happy with that.

The sale was done in about 2 minutes so just have to wait for the PTA to turn up. Pretty well have everything covered now with the .30-06, .204 and now a .22. Let's see how it shoots?

Nah, I don't need a shotgun. This Winchester will just be the proverbial plinker. No intention of putting a scope on it, open sights all the way.

The Aimpoint scope on my .30-06 has no magnification...I'm going to treat this the same way, albeit with iron sights.

[tactice]

No laugh. They're good fun!

I have shot a LOT of things using simple old iron sights, a Browning lever is a fine rifle.

[North East]

Might do a bit of a review on it whenever the PTA turns up.

I think it will be a fun rifle to shoot...for a .22. With a short lever throw of 33% it should be as quick as a semi auto cycling it.

I'm looking forward to this rifle...and shooting it with open sights.

That's the one thing my safe is really missing. A good lever with just the irons on it, no scope.

The only decent lever is the Browning or its miroku twin(same rifle)

I'm getting the Browning...for some reason Winchester also claim it. Mine will have Browning stamped on it.

But it's made in Japan. A good lever action .22.

There used to be a big difference but it wouldn't surprise me if winchester were now just re branding the browning/miroku- the Japanese one is far superior to the old winchester 22

[KWhorenet]

Don't Miroku make both Winchester and Browning nowadays? Separate designs just made by the same company and quality controls.

[Lorgar]

I do like the idea of the Browning BLR takedown I must say. Don't know how good they are but the idea appeals.

Otherwise a 'classic' one would also do nicely I'm sure.

[Wes]

No laugh. They're good fun!

And cheap fun

[North East]

Still waiting on the PTA.

[nords]

A whole day and it hasn't been issued!

What's Victoria coming to

[North East]

What's Victoria coming to

I live in Vic but purchased the rifle in NSW so have to go along the snail trail.

Ah my bad. Overlooked that bit

[North East]

Ah my bad. Overlooked that bit

No worries....should get it early next week.

[Utcherd]

Just got back from town after having paid for a new Winchester (Browning) BL-22 lever action.

They're a nice little rifle. Very smooth.

[North East]

They're a nice little rifle. Very smooth.

I'm looking forwards to shooting it. Should be able to cycle the action as quick as a semi auto. You're right....they are very smooth.

Just curious... I haven't bought anything interstate but I thought if you bought from a NSW dealer they would ship to a VIC dealer then you do your PTA there.

You have to do a permit with NSW reg as well to get them to ship to the dealer to start do you?

There are two gun stores about 3 kilometre from each other....one in VIC and the other in NSW. I've always gone to the NSW store, for the quality of service, high turn over....and the fact a Browning lever action was not available from the VIC store. I can get the firearm in NSW but VIC have to do the paper work.

NSW can't do electronic PTA's with VIC. I'm not going to go through the hassle of shipping a firearm 3 kilometre.

So it snail trail, hasn't been 7 days yet....I expect the PTA to turn up some time this week.

[scrolllock]

Ah well that makes sense then.

[North East]

Still waiting on the PTA for this rifle....that what happens when you live in the sticks.

[Seconds]

And our good old Gov still running things off pen and paper.

[North East]

Two weeks tomorrow for this PTA to turn up....see what happens tomorrow.

[Manimal]

Must be irritating having the store so close but going the long PTA route
