Miroku Winchester 1895 3006 & 270
Back in the day I wanted the Original 1895 Winchester.
I looked and looked, spied several I would like.
Their condition was questionable.
I found a new in the box Miroku Winchester 30-06 .
Wow, what great Craftsmanship in the machining
and wood to metal fit. I knew with the Miroku I
wouldn't blow my face off, so I got it.
Then I found a NIB Miroku Win in 270. The above
applied again, so I got it.
I have a Friend that always says "yea but their not
Winchesters" (he collects Winchesters). My reply
is always "Your damn right their not!, my 1895's are
built better than Winchester ever could!".
I shoot both with great care, and the 30-06 is softer
in recoil and the 270 has a sharp kick. I prefer the
30-06. I Reload so cost is not that much of a factor.
