    Loading 45-70 Black Powder

    Get yourself some Ballistol and make up a spray bottle of moose milk. Typical loading 70 grains of black powder, so you may need some filler for a compressed load. 50 grains should be a powder puff load for sure.

    New 223 Rem Ruger American predator issue.

    Does factory 223 chamber? If so, check your crimp. I bet if you lighten your crimp you’ll find your reloads feed and chamber like butter! 😀 I was having a similar problem with my American ranch in 223

    It's 2023 and you see a mysterious new PDW in the display case... interested?

    KelTec comes up with some “interesting” concepts but recoil management is not in their vocabulary. Every keltec that I’ve shot from pistol,rifle, and shotgun have been uncomfortable to shoot.

    1858 Uberti in Stainless received as a gift, tips on care?

    Ballistol, some old rags and a big box of q-tips! Flood everything with moose milk and start wiping off the fouling. Use the Q-tips to get into every nook and cranny. For a much cleaner/faster loading experience look into making your own paper cartridges. I find it adds to the hobby and helps...

    Potential Beeman R7 Buyer (Bought One - Thanks)

    I love my HW30! It is the perfect backyard plinking airgun. I’ve had mine for 5 years and legit shoot at least 30,000 H&N Excite II pellets a year. I buy them by the case from pyramid air. 2 years ago I finally broke the original spring and replaced it with a maccarri spring. No spring press...

    Shooting Orbeez Water Beads

    After reading a post about shooting "Orbeez" or water beads on another forum I had to try this idea out for myself! For the princely sum of $10 I purchased 50,000 water beads and 100 golf tees off Amazon. I drilled a series of holes into a scrap piece of 2x4 to hold the golf tees. After a soak...

    Would Nationwide reciprocity add a database

    Just make concealed carry an endorsement to a drivers license or state ID card, similar to a motorcycle endorsement. No need to have a separate concealed carry card in your wallet.

    Projecting Ruger's next firearm or firearm variant introduction

    Bring back the Bearcat with both 22lr/22mag cylinders.

    Gee, I wish they made a......

    I wish Ruger would bring back the Bearcat in 22lr/22mag. They can be had both on the used market and custom gunsmith market, but both options are way too overpriced.
