32-20 ammo is a lot cheaper and easier to come by. About 60-70 cents per round versus $2 plus per round of .351. I say keep them both. Win/win!I rationalized it by thinking, "It is one obsolete caliber for another..."
Never seen one in person, but I’d be happy to shoot it for you.I'm gonna bite the bullet and keep them all. Getting some more as a matter of fact. The heck with cash, who needs it. Guns are much more fun.
Now, who here has used the Winchester .351 before? Not planning on making it a primary shooter or anything, maybe take the occasional deer on a pretty day. From what I have found it isn't much different than the .357, so pretty much a good 100 yard gun with open sights? Old eyes but steady hand...

You know we need pictures, right? Reading is hard.Well, the 07 is just too cool. Think heavy M1 carbine with more punch and fewer moving parts.
T.C. earned his keep when he came up with this one. I don't know why only 58,000 were made. I have had a Remington 8, 81 and now this Winny and I will take this over the rest even if the Rem was in .300 Savage.
The detachable mag from the factory is one of it's big pluses.
I always joke that for deer season you are only allowed to have $10 worth of ammo on you, guess I will need to get a 5 round mag...
That is a beauty! Very nice!!!!Here it is. Made in 1956, one of the last 4000 or so made. I need to replace the buffer before I shoot it.
My 'friend in firearms' who is thinning his collection says he may be selling his Winchester M1 Garand. That is one I have been wanting but thought it would always be out of my reach. It is a CMP 'service grade' purchased years ago so you know it is a nice firearm.
Now I need to decide how much of my stuff I need to sell to prepare for the possible purchase...
Step down from that ledge before you do something you’ll regret. There are always rational alternatives. You still have two kidneys, right?
