I took your advice and filed a complaint w/the Florida State Attorney General's Office. Maybe if this company is contacted by SAG it will scare them enough to straighten up their business practice.

And, as I suspected, the rifle that had an “inventory problem” at warehouse C just yesterday is back in stock at 8:00AM the very next day...but at a much higher price. https://www.gunbuyer.com/catalog/product/view/id/49766/s/cz-527-youth-carbine-223rem-18-5-walnut-5rd-cz-03068-c/ They did...

I did ask for full refund. I’ve not yet seen the refund on my card.

I apologize if this isn’t the correct forum for this, but I wanted to share in hopes of helping others avoid the same problem. Mods please move if it fits better in another forum: I recently ordered a rifle from gunbuyer.com at a VERY good price. I was skeptical because I’d never even heard...

I’d call them at the number on the recall notice.

As a follow-up: I contacted Lyman who in turn contacted Buds. Turns out Buds uses drop-shippers and this one came from a 3rd party who was not named. Lyman offered to either issue a full refund or send me a new Great Plains Hunter with extras. After cooling off a bit I decided to accept...

I’m not implying that Buds is, in any way, responsible. It is very concerning, however, that rifles under recall for a potentially deadly defect are still in retailer inventories (evidently, they don’t even know this). It’s very unlikely that I got the only one to fall through the cracks...

I was lucky I guess. The next guy might not be...apparently there are a lot of rifles affected by the recall. What really alarms me though is that this rifle (confirmed to be under recall) was sold to me by a retailer, several months after the recall was started.

I didn’t find out until yesterday, the day my Lyman Trade rifle broke into two pieces, that there is an active recall so I thought I’d share. Brand new rifle purchased from Buds Gun Shop just last week. On my 2nd outing, 4th shot...the breech plug completely separated from the barrel. It...

Tried Superformace today. To give a baseline, this rifle shoots Rem Cor Lokt into ~1.25" 3-shot groups at 100 yds, which I consider very good for hunting ammo...and Hornady Black 140gr BTHP into a hair over 1" groups. Best group with Superformace was 42gr (my starting load) at 0.631"...every...

As some of you suggested, Varget didn’t work out (for me) with 140gr bullets. I will get some RL17 or 4350 at Cabela’s this weekend and try again.

Not looking for specific loads, just gathering a consensus (if there is one) on what powders and bullet weights generally give good accuracy. I could not resist the T/C Compass sale and picked up a 6.5. It has 1/8 twist so heavier bullets should not be a problem. Will probably start with...

My experience with 300MP in 357 and 44mag was smaller groups right up to the published max loads. I also got about +80fps over max H110 loads in the same revolvers. Big boom and flash...slightly more recoil. When I experimented with it in "Ruger Only" 45 Colt loads (where, at the time...

Good chance you'll get lower hardware (springs, pins, plungers, etc.) from the same source regardless of the retailer from which you purchase them.
