Do you know that you cannot load spitzer rounds into it or you can cause a KaBoom. The pointed tips of spitzer rounds rest on the primer of the round infront of it in the magazine tube. When you fire the rifle, the recoil will cause the spitzer tip to hit the primer of the round in front of it, thus causing a KaBoom. KaBooms are bad, you lose the rifle and maybe your hands or life.

It's not mine, belongs to a friend of mine in NY. It's a Model 88, belonged to his father. He doesn't do much with it other than plink 55 gallon drums and trees in his backyard.
