Another shout out to WACA member Jeremy Scott. $1000 U.S. for this 33WCF full mag.

I assume that $1000 is just a down payment…

You would think so Steve but no Jeremy bought a collection and this one was available at a very good price. Grateful once again.

Thanks! I’ve had a couple before but paid double that or more for them and like you cj57, I’m a fan of the 33. I personally think it’s a great cartridge and will harvest anything in North America imo.

Agreed. They were popular in Alaska-Canada and the Inter-mountain west.
Mine have grown on me and get carried around in the outback. Don’t forget
that Ben Lilly carried a FM 1886 in 33 Winchester for decades.

Read this about Lilly. “He was known many times to fight and dispatch in hand-to-hand combat bear and cougars using a self-made custom Bowie knife, more precisely a double edged S-shaped large Arkansas toothpick dagger, named “The Lilly Knife. For the rest he was an accomplished marksman and used a Winchester 1894 .30-30, when hunting mountain lion and black bear, and a Winchester 1886 in .33 Winchester for Grizzly.
