Vintage lever actions.

Wow
 
Sometimes the "buck fawns" get killed before they figure things out haha!

I've sold 2 rifles the past couple weeks and dropped them off at USPS myself, shipped to an FFL. In general I believe only long guns can be shipped and only through USPS by unlicensed folks sending to an FFL or themselves.

Heck of a collection @Angus 1895
 
I have no money because I can’t stop buying land, but I have to say you have a hell of a collection!
 
Land is a most excellent investment.

I realize now what firearms I like to use, these ones I listed would be better suited in tighter areas where 300 plus yards shots are not required.

I can attest to the accuracy of the above mentioned 444s. This gun traveled across the US to my door, sighted in, and killed a deer within an hour of it's first hunt. She's deadly.
 
Well done!

How was the recoil with the ported barrel?

Was it the Hornaday FTX bullet you used?

Wondering that myself. I can't take recoil very well after a car accident. Would like a .35 Rem version of the above.

I am not aware of many 35 Remington with a Texan configuration.

I can shoot you a deal on a S/C pictured above or the R/C I sent you photos of that I bought from Tn Big Bore

Another option may be a 45/70 P and load it down , I bet the 444 could be loaded down also,

Personally I am going to load up a35 Rem 336 A . I think the longer barrel may get me velocities near the 356/ 358.

I have found the PASTE pad to be indispensable in my shooting.

There was a limited run from Davidson's of the .35 Rem versions of the guide gun. Blued and stainless. Both are big bucks though.

Like always when you shoot an animal, I didn't even think of the recoil. When sighting it in, it had enough punch to make you remember it. But shooting the deer, that was a distant memory. I tried to slow down and focus on squeezing the shot. It worked like a charm.

I wasn't using the FTX, I found a couple boxes of Superperformance soft point 265s. Those shot accurately and so I stuck with those. Ask the old gal on the receiving end of it if it was effective :D
 
Years ago, my favorite bullet for the 444 was the Hornady 265. Always accurate and worked perfectly on deer.
 
I like the hornaday FTX bullet!

It seems more “ stout” than the SST?

but I could be imagining it, I run the FTX quite a bit slower.
