OfflineI just read in a Cowboy State News FB post that the 30 foot Winchester that was part of the Cody Bicentennial Parade and later atop a building near the Irma will be back before July 4. Maybe we can hang a WACA Show banner from it.

I’m glad to see that “big gun” back. I remember about 20 years ago it was outside the door of a nice little gun shop. When I came back to Cody after a ten year absence, both the gun and the store were gone. It’s nice to see it back.

I happened to see it when I was out for a walk, I was wondering where it wound up. Cool thing about Cody is that I could walk almost anywhere I wanted to go. I could actually walk over the hill to the arena almost as quickly as I could drive. Saw the rifle when I strolled down to the Irma for dinner Saturday.

I noticed on Thursday morning it after having my usual “Eggs Benedict” breakfast at the Erma… curious if the extra barrel length helps stabilize the bullets better?
Ben-
We’ll just have to shoot it and find out. We’ll need some old fire extinguishers to make cartridges and an old metal coffee can for a bullet mould. I’ll need another case of BP after the first range session. Gonna need a mattress for a recoil pad. Wonder if SPG comes in 5-pound blocks.
