32-20 WCF
Ammo is kinda hard to find and expensive when you do so you will just have to shoot what you can find . No currently manufactured ammo will hurt it.

Re: Model 14 Doesn't Lock in Battery

Sounds like something is still gummed up. I have a few and a 141 but have had no problems with them . Get a factory repair manual reprint off ebay from Cornell Publishing, might give you some ideas. nambujim will see this eventually and will know where to look, be patient .

Re: Model 25 issues

Jim will be along sooner or later, what he doesn't know about a 14 or 141 ain't worth knowing. As to working on a 25, be glad your not as it appears no one works on them or even has any idea where to start .

That design means nothing to anyone except the person that put it on there. Don't see anything specifically native American about it. Remington designed rifle not native American designed rifle. Rifle with possible Native American design would be the correct way to post this. John Browning actually ...

Re: 14 1/2 carbine

Mixed numbers are not normal. First year m14's were not drilled , 14 1/2 I am not sure about. Have you checked for proper feeding with cartridges ? Mixed guns quite often have feeding issues.
