40-rod, You didn't say who made your '66 and '73. Are they Chapparels? Pettifogger seems to think that the Chapparels are no good. If that is so, then thank you for your information. Well then, I might as well run another name by, but I'm fairly sure what I'll get for opinions on the Rossi line of rifles.
Henry, '66, and '73 are all Ubertis, all .44-40.
'76 is a Chaparral and works fine, but I don't reload and .45-60 bp ammo is pricey.
'86 and '95 are Brownings and there are very few finer. A .45-70 and a .30-40 US Krag calibers
'92 is a Rossi...marked EMF Hartford model and aside from being a .45 (I prefer .44-40 in" pistol caliber" long guns) is a great rifle.
'94 is a '21 or '23 vintage (I can't ever remember which) gin-you-wine Winchester in .30-30.
My 1860 army sixguns are Uberti and my .45 SAA clones are .45 Colt by the original AWA, but mighty fine guns anyway.
My only complaints about the Chaparral are the mismarked name of the distributer (Charles DAILY), and the lever isn't quite lined up with the bore. It's almost unnoticeable and doesn't effect the operation. I bought it for song because of the markings.
