    Ruger Mark I, II, III differences question

    Remo, thats an interesting comment. I have been considering an alternative. I dont like the Buckmark. They may be great pistols, but I cant get over the gold trigger. I believe they stopped making the woodsman in the early 70's (is this true?)Would that make finding one difficult? I am looking...

    Several questions about rust in my Mosin bore..

    45/70 FTX small game loads

    MY 45-70 load is a 430gr paper patched lead at a little over 1800. Works great on small game, big game, and anything in between!

    Digital Scale?

    I have had a Pact for years now. Wouldnt be without one, especially for weighing cats bullets. MUCH faster. The Pack comes with calibration weights.

    Why would the Army want an intermediate caliber?

    Ammunition has a shelf life. If not used, it is going to go bad in the case and cause Kabooms if it is not demilled before that happens. WW1 ammunition was fourteen years old in 1932 and was not getting any younger. I guess I better stop shooting all that 45ACP ammo I have. The headstamp...

    Action bedding

    I prefer Devcon "Plastic Steel". Harder, stronger and more chemical resistant than Accraglass.

    Had the same problem a few years back. A 6" & a 4" blue, like new, same price. he price was $375.00 each. Couldn't decide so I ended up buying both.

    Most accurate Bolt for around $1000?

    If I had a thousand to spend on a rifle I would just buy TWO Savages.

    Best Rifle/Caliber for North American Hunting?

    30-06. Cast your own and load down for mice, load jacketed 220s or 250s for moose. One gun to do it all.

    Perfect Three?

    +1 ON THE 30-06. If you cast, (I do) you can load for anything, anywhere.

    Militarily are handguns obsolete?

    I provided my own 1911 back in 69/70. Saved my butt twice. I would not go into any kind of combat without one.

    Glock upgrade?

    Best upgrade for a Glock? That would be a Sig.

    Looking for a "Combat Revolver" in .357

    Two words, Colt Python. If you are going to stake your life on a handgun, best to go with the best.

    Casting From Scratch

    If you do get into casting, you might want to consider paper patching your cast bullets for rifle shooting. With paper you can have the same accuracy and velocity as jacketed at a fraction of the cost.
