I have had two of my 32/20's out in recent weeks. I forgot how much I enjoyed them.

The 30 Carbine's ancestry is obviously from the HV 32/20 WCF. The 30 Carbine has never had a reputation for being accurate, and most of that fault lies with the Carbines themselves. …
Ruger has made bolt rifles in their '77' series in 22 rimfire, 357 Magnum, and 44 Magnum calibers. It seems a shame that they haven't opted to try a variant in 30 Carbine that would fit surplus M1 Carbine mags.
Please, tell me more!No problem at all to convert a Remington 580 series 22LR to 32/20 or 30 carbine, as a single shot.
PM me your email address and I will send you the nine pages of instructions that I have.Please, tell me more!

This. The Browning lever gun copies are beyond "pretty good" rifles. They do approach artwork. My model 53 (left in picture) pairs with a 1911 or 1914 vintage S&W 1905 with a 5-inch barrel. Later this summer when the grass gets longer these will get taken out after gophers that are up sitting on rocks above the grass. Ever since I began reading about rifles/pistols and guns in general back in the 1970's it's been suggested the Winchester dash cartridges (25-20,32-20,38-40,44-40) should be retired, that would be a shame.Have 3. Love them. The Browning 53 is a piece of art!
I have 3 .25-20s. A Low-wall, a 1892 round barrel rifle, and a sweet little perfect poacher's gun, the Model 25 Remington pump with the Lyman peep. I foolishly let a M23 Savage with the receiver sight slip through my normally acquisitive fingers. I'll get one some day. I should get a .25-20 barrel for my Contender carbine now that I have one.you know, i'm still jealous because i didn't buy the 25/20 when my friend's grandfather died back when i was 18yo. it was a Win m92 and i don't what year it is. dummkopf should have taken his wallet out and bought it ($150 ?). but noooooooo, he thought it wasn't fast enuff (3000+ fps to eh, it will get there). i didn't know about old lever rifles and they cost. the 25/20 and his grandfather were a deer killin' medicine. it also was a cow, rabbit, grouse, feral cat & dog, turkey, squirrel, groundhog and whatever else he pointed at, a killer too.
