Summer Squirrel Rifles

[RTH1800]

Going to try this Winchester 63 Deluxe on early season squirrels. It’s been many years since I carried anything except a Mod 52 for squirrels. This one shoots very well and is ready to go. Scope is a 6X Schmidt & Bender on a factory grooved receiver and Tally split rings.

That's a beautiful 63 - what a treasure!

Very nice

Have fun. Is the scope still set for 100m or has the parallax been reset to 75 yards?

 

[Bender]

Man! That’s so cool! How did you train the squirrel to hold the tiny rifle?

 

[RTH1800]

The scope is a standard S&B 6X. If all goes well I will call S&B to see if parallax can be adjusted.
Not optimistic but worth a try.

Simple task but one that I leave to the professionals.

I’ve wanted a 63 for a long time.That’s by far the nicest I’ve ever seen!

That is nice! Not many manufacturers produce 22lr rifles these days with steel and walnut. That would be a joy to hunt with.

Oh wow!…reminds me of my youth. Had one with irons, but the wood was much plainer than yours. What a nice rifle.

Any idea who could do this if S&B does not?
Thanks!

You know... if you wear a ghillie suit, sqiddles walk right up to ya? If you sit quietly & dont move, pretty much everything in the woods will walk right by. My buddy was wearing mine, & a skwerl sat on his foot. A coyote walked right up on him & about came out of his skin when my buddy barked at it.

Pressure cooker for softening them up. Got any good tree rat recipes?

Anyone who services optics. It is a simple matter of rotating the front lens BUT as stated, I leave it. to people who service and repair optics for a living.

Stunning Deluxe model 63! I just won one at auction and look forward to recieving it. Mine is a late 1940s manufacture and I'd consider it a semi-deluxe becuase of the checkering style and lack of sling swivel mounts. Do you know if your supergrade swivels are a smaller scale than super grade swivels on a centerfire rifle such as a Deluxe model 71, 64, 65, 70, etc?

 

[RTH1800]

Same.

Beautiful rifle!
