I just got back from the range with my newly aquired Nylon 66. All I can say is WOW. It shoots just like my dad's old gun. Here's some pics. I was using Winchester Wildcat 22LR at 25 yards.
I am absolutely blown away by how well this shot. I found the manufacturing date to have been 1972, so I don't think it's too bad for a gun that's 27 years old. __________________

Nice gun.
I love the Winchester Wildcats. They were $2.15 [out the door] per 50. Cheap and great ammo.
Good report!

Nice gun! I always wanted one, but I bought a Mossberg 352K in 1972 instead...it was a lot cheaper than the Nylon66 - $45 at Caldors...and oh, BTW your gun is NOT 27 years old....it's 37 Years old! __________________

I'm glad I only paid $175 for mine. That's why I love Bud's Gun Shop. __________________

That's why I shop around. I very rarely ever buy guns at the show. To many of them are way over priced.
Like you, I would rather buy smartly, and save money for ammo. | |

Very nice, that's one model I'm trying to get myself. I have the black white diamond with chome barrel and a brown and blue, but not the black on black. Also got a 77 in green, 11, 10C and 76 in brown. __________________
