Hey all-
I have two .22 rifles, spent a couple years plinking around with them, and am thinking of upgrading. (graduating, if you will). I laid my eyes on (and held) an EMF Winchester 1892 carbine, with (gasp!) a saddle ring! I have thought of nothing since!! I really want to walk in and pick this gun up but it's a 45 colt. I'm a strong gal, 5'8, athletic. Is this too much gun for me? Will I be in for a surprise when I sqeeze the trigger for the first time?
I see they make 45 colt cartridges in 165 gr, 200 gr, and 250 gr. Will the lesser grain rounds lessen the recoil?
Many thanks for any advice/opinions folks!
Helen
