    44 mag Wadcutters

    My favorite is the Accurate 43-240W. Type 3 wadcutters - the wadcutter that loads like a standard velocity round, albeit with an elongated exposed tip.

    •••44 cal WADCUTTERS•••?

    Picked up a brass mold from Accurate, a 240gr type 3 wadcutter. They run great through revolvers and leverguns. I love shooting wadcutters. I think I have all the old school designs Ideal and Lyman ever came out with for 38/357 too.

    140 grain 38 caliber loads do they have a place?

    I use a MP hollow point mold that drops bullets at 142. They function great in a lever gun and expand well with wheel weight alloy.

    No battery optics

    In the spirit of the Meprolight m21, Trijicon makes thier RX series sights that are tritium/fiber optic red dots. I really dig my rx01nsn.

    LaRue backorder times?

    If you cant wait, ADM makes awesome mounts too. Often a bit cheaper, and great quality. (Not a larue hater, I own a few of thier mounts)

    The Sling: benefits and technique

    If you're a fan of the gi web sling, take a look at the Magpul RLS. At a buck or two more than a gi sling, they're worth it.

    Who are the goofs who don't clean up their trade-ins?

    The worst I ever got was a DOC trade in Smith Model 64. It was so caked in carbon i believe nobody had ever, and I mean ever, cleaned it before. After giving it some Hoppes #9 love, it looked brand new and had a butter smooth trigger. Not a bad buy for $300.

    Getting feet wet in ar-15 world..

    I'd look at the current PSA offerings before getting the Sport. A buddy of mine recently purchased one, and had serious buyers remorse. He wanted one a little more mil spec-ish, and was disappointed.

    Ever get odd looks/awesome stories shooting a rifle?

    Odd looks? Some old fudd at the range was bashing my 9mm AR and called it a ghetto blaster. Whatever, I could still outshoot him and his Viagra needing ass anyways.

    M1A, ARMS 18, Cowitness?

    Check out the M14 Forum, there's a whole section dedicated to optics, and someone can probably point you toward the light. I'm going to do a Bassett rail on mine soon enough, probably with Leupold glass. Can't wait!

    Brass polishing problems

    That's an awesome idea, Blarby. I'm going to set up 2 buckets from now on, and go out and get some brand new media to try it out with.

    An AR in my future??

    If you think you might want to build your own, which is both fun and informative, check out the tech sections at AR15.com. The few extra dollars you spend in tools will be offset by the amount of knowledge you learn by building your own.

    Winchester 94!!!

    I have a 1971 94 in 30-30 that i bought off a retired doctor a few months ago. It's in excellent condition and shoots just as well. I might give it a go next deer season.

    Anyone else impressed with Ruger's Handguns?

    I wouldn't be caught with one of thier centerfire pistols, but I love thier 22s.
