Guns bought lately

[skeet]

I bought a couple of guns from fellow I know. One was an as new JC Higgins M-20 pump in 12 ga. Only thing bad about the gun is it has no safety. But that I can find..the other one is what this post concerns. Got a fair Winchester 1886 from the fellow. The gun is shootable but I can't find any 33 cal flat nose Jacketed bullets for it locally. Oh forgot to say it is a 33 Winchester caliber. I consider it a project gun because the bbl was cut to 21 inches from 24. Stock is ok but need a rifle buttplate..easily found. I have a friend who let me use a hard to find 33 cal bullet mould to cast a couple hundred light bullets. Wondering if anyone out here on HC may have a Lyman 33 cal flat nose mould and /or 33 caliber flat nose jacketed 200 gr bullets. I didn't pay an awful lot for the rifle but it had a very hard to find Lyman peep sight on it. I made a few cases from 45-70s and it seems to shoot cast bullets ok. But would like to find jacketed so I can try to bag an elk next year up in the black Timber. Some original cases would be a good thing also. Rifle was made in 1907 and shipped in April of 1908. A friend is a researcher at the Cody Winchester museum..LOL Not a real Lever gun type but just want to restore this to a shooter. I have found a good condition original length barrel for it.
