Not sure.  Never got one just to have and collect.  I intended to shoot them all, but never got around to most of them.  Too busy running matches and shooting matches  Undecided  WE used to have a full plate with all the LR and schuetzen.  Hard to keep up with casting and loading.

How do you keep track of whose turn it is?  Do they all get to a match at least once a year?

With a system like that you probably shoot as good as the old saying, beware of the guy with only one rifle, he most likely knows how to use it.  Cheesy

Ballards may be weaker,

Joe, I didn't know you were so good at perch belly.  Maybe I should get some for the Stevens Pope?  Roll Eyes

These Ballard levers are truly a mystery.....I've talked to John Dutcher about them, but even he doesn't know who made them. This rifle has no serial number, it's not quite like any other Ballard I've owned, the barrel is marked "made to order by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company," and it has the magic lever;  Huh
