Welcome Aboard:

If you don't mind...please refrain from using the cap lock on your keyboard..It's difficult to read and some folks find it as if you are yelling at them..Other than that..enjoy your stay..and check out the FAQ's at the top of the main NEF page...You can find a-lot of helpful information on your Handi up there...There's several post with tips and tricks to making your Handi shoot better or finding a cure to most little problems that crop up from time to time..

Ditto on being a new member and I would say "stunned" at my reaction to this site. I also love my NEF and bought it used a year ago walking thru Gander Mountain. Never heard of a NEF before that, and after I got it home and used it deer hunting I realized the NEF was going to be a regular at the cabin.

Looking forward to many conversations about this "Handi" little rifle!!!

Just got the 30-06.

Have been wanting the 22 hornet for awhile. Have a gallon jug of H-110 powder I'd like to use up. But the 45-70 with the 32" barrel awfully tempting too. Anybody make just a rear peep and front blade to go with the 45-70.

I don't like the Lyman globe front site with inserts, and can't figure out which Williams sight would work when reviewing their charts etcetera. Just want a big old ghost peep site with a nice big fat blade front.
