Thanks for the update, arky. It sounds like you're well on your way to getting things settled.

Still no target stands built. But, its record at 50 yards so far is 4 out of 5 skeet clay's. I have 66 year old eyes and a rest and bulls eye will not show how accurate the gun is. My usual fun with lever guns is shooting clay's off hand at 50 and 75 yards. Three of them have ghost rings or peeps and I sometimes stretch that to 100 yards with them.
In my eyes, the big loops do not make the gun look better but I do recognize the functionality of them. However, it is not often cold enough here to require bulky gloves. I usually use thin wool ones. If it is below 25 degrees I hunt by the campfire. Now that me and my hunting buddies are older we agree that we are not near as mad at the deer as we used to be!
I agree on the large loop lever; I really like the classic lines of the rifle without it. Of course, I have not packed mine with me yet in the winter..."hang on a minute Mr. Grizz, I just have to get my glove off...well there it goes and with the hand still in it no less...I did tell you to wait a minute!"
