Just looking at those lever guns you can tell they were assembled during time when they took pride in their work. Great guns there! Beautiful craftsmanship. 🤠🇺🇸
Don't think I have seen a 94 src with button mag, and man yours is a stunner!!! I been playing its a modern 94 takedown in 38-55. Its a ball to shoot. Totally enjoy these videos with Ol Winchesters , and your beautiful ranch. Thank you
Thanks Robert! 1894 in 38-55 is a great combination. I've not shot 38-55 much in the past, but I'm thinking I'll be shooting it quite a lot more in the future.
I have a ‘94 Winchester sporting rifle in 38-55, made in 1923 and in excellent original condition. I just replaced the original rear 3 blade leaf sight with a Lyman tang sight. With a little practice you can catch the spent case when you eject it. I also have 3 Ballards and a ‘93 Marlin in 38-55. A note to anyone with an antique rifle in that caliber; be sure to slug the barrel to properly size the bullet. I found a considerable difference in bore diameters.
Excellent point about slugging the bore on 38-55's. I meant to mention it in the video, but sadly my memory isn't what it used to be and I forgot to get it in there. Most of the 38-55 Winchesters I've encountered need a little larger bullet diameter to shoot well. I got lucky and this SRC shot well with .378 bullets, probably because it has such a pristine bore.
Ballard was pretty smart, 32-40 and 38-55 have been such accurate rounds for yrs. Anyone question that watch the Sagebrush Long shots channel. They mostly shoot the larger calibers but have shot the 38-55 900+ yrds if I remember right. That 92 has been trouble for a long time and isn't willing to give up just yet. Thanks for all your work.
Here's a link to those long shoots th-cam.com/video/xZ1ejNygdFw/w-d-xo.html They make some incredible shoots with calibers normally not thought of as long range.
Yep, they regularly run Lyman and Verier sights for those ranges. Fun to watch. Most calibers' only limits to range is the courage of the shooter, and more careful load selections.
Great looking little button mag 94 SRC. The 38-55 was my grandpa's favorite cartridge. As a boy he was raised up on the side of Mt Rainier. It became a National Park on 2 March, 1899. My grandpa was born in 1889. Throughout his young adult and adult life he took deer, black bear, and Mazama mountain goat with his 38-55. Great video of a neat rifle in a neat chambering.
Great video again Mark. Lovely 1894 that ! .Got a 1894 carbine full length Mag in 44-40 .They sold a fare few of these in Australia back in the 70s for Croc hunting up north in NT .Cheers
That 94 is a sweet shooter for sure. You’re not bad yourself Mark 😜 Can’t wait to see the 92 in action. Thanks for another great video! See you next time.
First centerfire rifle I ever shot was a button mag model 94 carbine that was my uncles. It's 30wcf though, made in 1899 if I recall and I still have that gun today. Very lightweight handle rifles.
I really like button magazines on the '92 and '94. That is the first case colored lever I've ever seen on a Winchester. I didn't know that was ever offered. Thanks for the video!
Thanks Joe! All the 1894 levers and hammers were color case hardened until about 1905, when Winchester started bluing them. CCH isn't a very durable finish, so most of them don't still show the colors unless they've seen little use.
Enjoyed the video , I remember seeing a box of 38-55 ammo in a small store in Georgia some years ago and was curious enough about it to do some research . When I came across a nearly new model 94 big bore. 375 xtr for a pretty reasonable price I took it home and have been very pleased with it in the eastern deer woods .
Great Shooting Mark You Made Hitting Those Jugs Look Easy 😮😲😀 Love The Looks of That Winchester 94 in 38/55 With The Natural Patina on The Receiver and Color Case Hardened Finger Lever 😀😊😀😇👍🏼
What a nice .38-55; a really great deer and black bear gun and would do well on wild boar. I have owned a model 94 big bore .375 WCF but frankly would favor a good .38-55 instead
Thanks SGT! They're very similar cartridges, but the .375 is probably a little easier to get ammo for (in normal times). I'm with you though, I really like the 38-55.
I have alot of fun with the one I have. She really shoots. You wouldn't think they would be as accurate as they are, with the shorter barrel. I reload for mine, likes .379 diameter soft cast bullets. Great video as always!! Keep up the good work, and have fun!
Happy your property survived the fires this year. I loved my repo 92, in 38/357. Full octagon 22" barrel, but couldn't turn down the amount of cash I was offered for it.
Thanks, fire season is finally over and we can breathe a little easier. Those little reproduction 92's are great little shooters. It's kind of unreal how much money they're bringing now, though.
Nice ole 38 55. Not many people shoot them over here nowadays 🇦🇺. There like the 32 20s , you can get the ammo but it’s way over priced. Perhaps one day someone passionate about reproducing old cartridges at a reasonable price will fill the gap in the market.... Good video , great shooting , keep the dream alive big fella and I’ll catch you on the next one 🦘🙂
Thanks Big Trev! We're in the midst of an epic ammo shortage and can't get much of anything now. Interestingly, brass for many of the obsolete cartridges is only made by Bertram Brass down in your neck of the woods.
Gramps had a Winchester 1894 38-55; don't remember if it had a saddle ring, pretty sure it had a full size magazine. It went to uncle Ernie after he died, and HE kept it in his garage. That's where I got to see it. When nobody was looking I got it out of that closet and took a good look at the old girl. This was the late 60's or early '70's. Now that uncle Ernie has past on (along with his kids) I have no idea what happened to that old Winchester, sure wish I had it. Hope it found a good home.
Thank you for your great videos. My family all lived in southwest Wyo. At one time. Lever action rifle and most old western guns are awsume. I shot some lead bullet on steel matches with lever rifles only super cool. Got to try a 25 20. I would like to see some of the old rifles performance on paper too.
Great rifle and cartridge. I’ve got a new Winchester/Miroku 1894 takedown in 38-55. Starline is your friend when it comes to brass, once it’s back in stock lol. They make it the correct length 2.125 with the correct case mouth thickness. Good article on what they did on their website. Thanks for sharing. Happy trails👍🏻
I want that. I have looked at the Italian reproductions but the inconsistency of the bore sizes (much larger) causes me problems since I have to buy cast bullets vs making them myself. Love the videos. Thanks for the work.
Not yet, but I just got some tooling for that project and am working on fixing up an 1866 carbine that I'll use to test fire the cartridges. Keep an eye out for that episode coming soon.
Ironically, I was in my local Sportsman's Warehouse a couple of months ago and the only ammo on the shelf was 4 boxes of 38-55. It's definitely not one you normally see at sporting goods stores.
Did you wind up doing a tour of the 19th century workshop? I can't find it if you did. I am an avid history buff and would love to see an old workshop like that.
My favorite caliber. Do you sleeve shot out barrels? This is an old 1903 shot out 94 I got when I lived in Mt. I've shot it but I'd like to hit the target
I do reline barrels and I'd be happy to do that for you. There are also a couple of companies here in the Northwest who are specialized in that kind of work: Redmonds Rifling and Reboring in Washington and John Taylor Machine in Idaho.
I have an episode in the works using old reloading tools. I have to be careful how I present it though. TH-cam has recently banned new content that shows how to manufacture guns or ammo.
@@thecinnabar8442 Maybe the loads are sometihng you can do on your facebook page. It's fantastic seeing the rifles and the information of these old treasures.
Neat guns. I really wish the 25-20 would have gone bang since I used my uncle’s for small game. I even shot an antelope doe with it after waiting three hours at a dirt tank that had a big lone juniper tree growing by it that provided nice cover. Just out of curiosity, where is the Cinnabar located?
My Grandfather James owned a Winchester 38 55 that was used by a soldier in the battle of waterloo my uncle Jim owns the Rifle. My father wants to buy it back
I have an old beater 94 in 25-35 that I want to convert to a button magazine. It needs a new barrel anyway so I thought why not dress it up. Can you show the button magazine feature and how it attaches to the barrel?
Thanks. After removing the pin, I found that it had been "rebuilt", but someone had botched it pretty badly. It was short, crooked and had lots of porosity in the weld. A new replacement is only around $30, so that's the best option for the customer. I may save the old one and do an episode on rebuilding a firing pin some day.
Quick question. 94 SRC carbine front sight base. Is it milled out as a part of the barrel or were they dovetails? I can't see any indication of a dovetail.
@@thecinnabar8442 If you were going to replicate this with a brand new barrel, would it be a combination of end mill and lathe turning? I'm guessing that if you had to shorten a damaged barrel you would be forced to dovetail a fabricated carbine style base or go with a completely different style of period correct dovetailed rifle sight.
Hey Mark , I just joined the Winchester Arms Collectors Association but I'm having trouble posting a question , any advice as to what I may be doing wrong ?
I have a passion for a winny in a 38-55, though finding one in decent shape is rare as hens teeth! What are your thoughts on rebarrel a post 94 to a 38-55? Would it be practical because I have a beater gud for the conversion. Thanks Nate
I was shooting .378 cast bullets in this episode. I was a little surprised that it shot so well, since Winchesters in this caliber have a reputation of needing oversized bullets. I suppose the pristine bore probably makes the difference.
A local shop just took in five boxes of 255gr 38-55 jacketed bullets and six boxes of unprimed Winchester cases. I don't have a 38-55 rifle but I'm thinking I'll buy the stuff, never know when a rifle will turn up. The old boxes of cases are marked $5.55.
@@thecinnabar8442 Decided against it, I'll let someone who actually shoots that caliber buy it. I'm currently focused on getting a neglected Harper's Ferry 1816 percussion musket back in working order. That was some video about the destroyed 1894!
Either smokeless or black powder loads can be perfectly safe. Just don't "hot rod" the smokeless loads if your 38-55 is in an old firearm. I posted a video a while back where I thoroughly covered this subject. Look it up if you're interested.
I love your channel with all the great rifles. I just started a ranching channel that you might like. I would like your support. Keep the great videos coming.
helloMy name is Koon from Thailand.I envy your country so much that you can have an auto gun, Thailand does not have the indulgence to have an auto-caliber gun, it is long banned.😩
We are very fortunate to be able to own and shoot these old guns. We have had several exchange students from Thailand stay with us while going to our local high school. We try to teach them as much as we can about firearms and gun safety while they are here. Thanks for watching.
Those oldies can literally inspire a novel just looking at them.
