How do these rifle rate? I am considering a 22 Hornet and unfortunately, I don't have anywhere to hunt so the use of the rifle would be a range toy and to play around with handloads. I first considered getting an older Anschutz but that seems to be a lot of money for something I have no real...

Darn, I was planning on using it on tigers and cape buffalo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.22_Savage_Hi-Power

I just started reloading and it was for this round. I found a load on-line of 25gr of H4895 over a 70gr sp. Out of my rifle, I get an average of 2633fps. Does anyone here have experience with this cartridge? I don't want to invest a lot in different powders as I will not be reloading many...

I have a 39AS and the trigger pull is a bit heavy. Is there any drop-in replacement parts that would lighten it without risking lite primer strikes? Should I just take it to a gunsmith?

Seller & Bellot loaded ammo for the 22 HP is marked 5.6X52R

5.6 X 21....They are supposed to be bullets for reloading not shells

They are supposed to be for a 5.6X52R/22 Hi-Power and weigh 70gr

I love firearms and some will say almost obsessed but I do not shoot a lot. I shoot my 9s more ( still not a lot ) and have no desire to reload them when I can get 50 Nato spec for $9 ( my back starts hurting when I think about moving all the ammo cans ). My main concern was to be able to reload...

Has anyone read in actual accounts of early 20th century ( 1900-1914 ) archaeologists, geologists, surveyors...etc.. who went into hostile places or middle of nowhere the make and model handguns they personally carried?

for reloading a few hundred rds a year of 22 Savage Hi-Power and probably the same amount of .357? On the surface, it looks perfect for the amount of use it will see but I know very little about reloading much less of how much force it takes to form .22HP brass from 25-35 Winchester brass. I...

Good? Bad? I know it is saying the action opening lever points to the right but what exactly does that mean mechanically? I have been looking at some used shotguns online and noticed some levers point straight down the stock and then some point left or right, with most being to the right. Some...

I just acquired a 1980 ( 20 serial # ) .357 1894 with the dovetail front sight. I want to upgrade the sighing system and the option of an aperture and a scout scope in QD rings is appealing. It looks like the front sight would be too low for how high the rear aperture is. Is that just an...

I like the K frames but am afraid when buying an older, pre-lock model, I might get one that is loose, as I am probably going to have to buy online.

I just acquired a Marlin 1894 in .357 and I want a .357 DA/SA revolver to go with it. Top of my list are the Ruger SP101 Target and an S&W 28 4". The S&W would get the nod for the "cool" factor but I like the smaller size of the Ruger. Other than giving up 1 shot, is there any other reason to...
