TFB Review: Hornady .25-35 Winchester LEVERevolution – Antique Friendly Firearm Fuel
Federally speaking, firearms manufactured before 1899 are only regarded as antiques. Legally, they occupy the same regulations as muzzleloading black powder firearms, meaning that they can be bought and sold without a 4473. Just because a gun is old, however, doesn’t mean that ammo is impossible to find. I recently acquired an 1896 vintage Winchester 1894 and needed ammo for it. My general rule is “no safe queens”, and that includes an antique such as this. In my search for .25-35 Winchester (WCF) ammo, I found that one of the easily available loads still being produced is in Hornady’s LEVERevolution line.
