Thanks ! But there was definitely some piles of 'iron pyrite' I had to dig through to get there - and I still ain't found the 'Motherload' !

Thanks ! I also nipped a couple inches off the mage tube spring as it was pretty tight also (not unusual with lever guns) and that helped too.
Yea I kinda like 'tinkering' with Winchesters - but then I have done a lot of it!
