When I came across 22 WRF, the first thing I did was to check ammo availability. I ended up purchasing 250 rounds before I even bought a rifle. The ammo came in and the wife asks, “what gun is that for?” and I had to tell her I hadn’t bought one yet, I just wanted to make sure I had the ammo first. She walked away shaking her head at me….
Anyway, when I took possession of this 1890, the action was all gummed up from who knows how long sitting up. Got it all cleaned up and sighted in at 25 yards, which happens to be about the distance from the front porch to my garden. I’m ready for the Spring rabbits!

Funny! As I have had similar type feelings. For example, I have a long range Vernier sight especially for the Whitney-Kennedy rifle…and I have been thinking on buying a rifle for it! I probably would if I could find the right windgauge front sight or Beach sight for it!
Enjoy the rabbit season and table fare! BTW, I do like the WRF cartridge, too!

Sounds like my wife too. I have 2 WRF’s and really love shooting them. If you need more ammo I know where there is a couple of cases of the 1986 run.

I have 500 rounds on hand- that should do me for a bit. In fact, I may need to pick up another rifle to feed…..

Hey Ron, Your thinking makes perfect sense to me. I bought an 1890 just to get the Winchester vernier tang sight off it. But when I lettered the gun, I found out the sight came on the gun! Well I certainly could not just take the sight off! So now I have a cool well used and shootable Model 1890. Good thinking on your part!

I understand completely. I’ve known people who bought bullet moulds for guns they didn’t own…yet. Never done anything like that myself, of course.
