Our cover photo comes from good friend and black powder rifleman, Harvey Pennington. Pictured is his trusty old Winchester Model 1892 .44-40 WCF sporting rifle – Harvey is fond of wandering the woods with it.
In an age when most big-game hunters need the newest high-power magnum rifle to harvest a deer, Harvey shows us how to do it with the .44-40 WCF.
Check out his article in this issue if using fieldcraft and an antique Winchester rifle to fill the freezer appeals to you. As always, Harvey gives us some good tips and solid information for using a traditional black powder cartridge rifle in the field. Thanks, Harvey, for a great cover and excellent article.
