Wild boar hunting with an original 1886 Winchester 45-90 WCF rifle

[@airsoft787]

I love seeing someone care so much for the wildlife and the level of respect given to the game. As a hunter myself it’s reassuring to see videos like this. You are a genuine marksman and a role model for hunters around the world. Awesome video!!

[@Bayan1905]

There's nothing like hunting with a vintage gun. You can watch all the videos you want with a new gun, latest scope, in the latest, greatest caliber, but an old gun is something special. Last year I shot a whitetail buck with a Winchester 1894 in .32-40. That was one of my favorite hunts.

[@veteranironoutdoors8320]

I second that sentiment. I took my biggest buck this year with an 1891 carcano. Its my favorite hunt, besides my first when I took a big doe with a mosin 91/30.

[@sidekickbob7227]

Very true! You (I) connect to the history and your ancestors in very different way, by using old methods and equipment. The focus changes from beeing about the kill, to the experience about the hunt. Somewhat to prove I got some of the skills the oldtimers depended on. I prefere to use my old ferlach (Johann Siggot) drilling (20gauge & 7x72R) from 1931(not that old), with external hammers. Light, slim, and a beaty to use!

@@veteranironoutdoors8320 As a teenager, we had an old SMLE 303 at our farm house; hunted for deer with it, but there were few deer about. Several years later there was a buck that began crossing our small farm near our neighbors pond. I nailed up a plank in a forked tree and waited there one frosty morning; caught him chasing a doe and put a 170 grain slug through him with a 1937 Model 94 Winchester 30-30. He was stocky, and butter fat!

[@andyjame9687]

The rifle arrived today and I dialed in the scope just a couple hours ago kzbin.infoUgkxQt2uORDRfFOVSrO4idv4B90ThT6EOnEL . I haven’t shot with a scope in probably 25 years. The X on the left was my target. (the shot almost in the bullseye on the right X was my father in laws first shot after I made adjustments) The two shots circled are my first 2 shots. Then I brought it down - shot once. Then brought it over to the left. From there zeroed it in to dead center. This all was from 25 yards out. Follow instructions carefully when mounting the scope. So far I'm very happy with the purchase.

[@billskinner623]

I have that rifle, except mine is a take down with a 4 round magazine. I use the exact same mold, the same brass and the same powder. I use a compressed charge of 80 grains of powder through a 2/3rds meter drop tube. It allows the powder to settle in the case better. I also use a magnum primer. Bullet lube is SPG or a concoction made of tallow and bee's wax. My accuracy is about the same. I have never taken the pin out of the mold. You are a true hunter. And this is one of the best video's about hunting that I have ever watched.

[@capandball]

Thanks! I will also try the compressed charge later, but as the largest game we have here is red deer, the 66 grains can also do the job. SPG is an excellent lube, I used that also on my bullets.

[@richardt.4224]

As always, a very good video. When I retired from MLAIC competition (clay trap) I took up patched round ball shooting on paper and now I can good enough I hunt game too. Many of my hunts a fruitless, but for me, it's about being out there enjoying the wilderness; seeing game is a bonus and to take the game is the icing on the cake. In our NZ winter, I help on a peasant shoot as a beater and at seasons end, the beaters get one or two days shooting and as a clay target shooter, taking a high pheasant with a muzzle loading shotgun is so rewarding.

These videos always help me get through our off-seasons. Thank you. One thing I always do when hunting in snow or dense woods is place a piece of electrical tape over the muzzle. I've never had it affect accuracy in a notable way, and it can prevent dangerous muzzle obstructions when beating around in the bushes and falling in the snow. Not graceful, but very practical.

[@populustremula7496]

Watching this video reminded me of when I hunted as a kid. I’d go into the woods with my Winchester 62A and still hunt squirrels. I lament much of what is now called hunting because it strikes me as predominantly shooting and not so much as hunting. I believe a great disservice was done to the sport when, in the pursuit of increased sales, military rifles like AR’s were called sporting arms. Armed with military weapons we turned onto a road more militaristic in approach to the taking of game. Camouflage clothing, laser sights, overly long distance shots, ATV’s or even helicopters as shooting platforms, and other modern approaches are commonly portrayed as the way to hunt. Thanks for this video. It says much more about hunting than just your spoken words. Regular clothes and one good shot is all a man needs to experience the experience. I believe that the stripping away of the superfluous is the thing to be most sought after when immersing oneself in what is left of the natural world. Thanks again for conveying that beautifully.

The 1886 is my favourite Winchester, this was a very enjoyable vid. Most of the cases that I had were lengthened 45-70 brass and annealing was necessary very often to avoid the mouth cracking. Most of the time I wouldn't crimp the cases to help avoid cracking and the bullet was snug enough with light plinking loads or loaded single shot. I tried once to get the most powder I could behind a 300gr bullet but it was not accurate. Lighter loading and heavier bullets worked the best, about 47-70 loadings and light smokeless plinking loads with kapok as a filler. Cheers.
