what bad men where known to have used the rem. 8/81? and what law men used it other than frank hamer? dose anyone have photos they could show?

yea i still use it, it still works on deer or outlaws...i am going to put out corn this morning and i am taking it with me.

that's another thing we get to do here in sc is bait deer

roger maybe you can get a move started to change things. i would point to states like mine, our season is long and the deer population is still very good but in control. also i would contact the insurance companies, they have to pay the claims. who knows? maybe you can get some momentum started in t...

i wonder if he made it without getting ran over?

duhhh i see it now

i would like to see the photo of the ranger with the 8 where can i find it?

i don't use this load in a model 8, i use it in a 99 savage. 42 gr. of varget with a 150gr. rem. cl and a standard primer. it is a tack driver. also if i wont to use a 165 gr. sierra gkhp i drop it to 41 gr. deer deadly!

i know this is an old post but in my 30 rem. model 14 carbine it is at it's best with blc2 powder.

i don't have a model 8 in 30 i have a 32 rem. in a model 8 but i do have a 30 rem in a model 14 carbine and it is a real shooter with blc2 cast or jackets.

thanks for all the nice comments, when i saw the wood on the gun in the pawn shop you could just faintly see the grain under decades of crud. i striped the finish with furniture striper, and very lightley roughed up the wood with 320 grit. and used truoil. kendall what load do you use in your 32? my...

i would cheker it for sure, it would complete the gun.

this ain't no 8 but it is on a wagon wheel. it is my 99 savage barrel band carbine from 1937 in 303 savage.

http://i1220.photobucket.com/albums/dd445/olskool1/IMG_3242.jpg this is my 30 remington model 14 that i cut to 18 1/2 in. when i saved it from a pawn shop it had no blueing left but it was tight and the bore was perfect. so i always wanted a 14r i cut the 22in barrel and reblued with a matt finish ...

i have one in 32 and i also have a 32 special in a 1950 336 marlin. i shoot the same load in both, 30 gr. of imr4895 with a rcbs cast lead bullet. http://i1220.photobucket.com/albums/dd445/olskool1/IMG_3214.jpg and they are both tackdrivers. the lady i got my 8 from said here dad hunted with it in n...

you also can type in on ebay remington model 8 and most model 8 parts will come up.

i have a 1928 8 in 32 rem. i shoot only cast. i killed a deer last season with it. i use 30 gr. of imr 4895 with a rcbs 170 gr. this thing is extreemly accurate with this combo. i use 50% ww and 50% soft lead. i clean after 10-20 shots with no leading at all.

i grew up coon huntin here in s.c. it was my daddy's life! he would hunt all nite then come home clean up and go to work. if he had no one to go with him he would go alone. on weekends i would be with him. i know all about hounds....
