    Worst experience at the range: Equipment version

    1) went to the range with my new to me .357 Blackhawk. Went to load it up for the first time and the round fell way too far into the cylinder. Turns out someone had converted it to .41 mag and didn't mark it. 2) Was going to sight in my new Vortex red dot on my latest AR build. Went to turn...

    Keeping a Remington 11-87 running smoothly

    I have a 12ga 1100 that my dad bought in the late 70's early 80's used. Between the 2 of us this gun has close to 200,000 rounds of mostly 1-1/8oz target loads. In all that time it has never had the forend support. Honestly we didn't even know there was supposed to be anything there for the...

    Budget Slugs?

    I buy RIO's on line at various retailers for around $100 a flat (250) plus shipping. There are a few other import brands that are similar in price. Got my last flat from SG ammo for $89 on sale.

    How much did you lose in the "panic season"?

    Roughly $4000 out of my bank account and safe. But I replaced it with some nice FUDD guns people were dumping to fund their over priced black guns.

    KelTec Sub 2000 Longevity

    I have the S&W 59 mag version. Bought it about 7-8 years ago. At the rate I shoot it, it should last a lifetime considering it has never made it through a whole magazine without a malfunction.

    Remington Model 17 20ga

    Congrats on your new to you gun. I picked one up a while ago for $75 that was Being turned in at a gun buyback in seattle. It was being turned in because it was "broken".

    What finish is on Rem. 870?

    000 & 0000 steel wool and Kroil worked great to get the rust off my Express. Whatever the finish Remington uses on the express sucks. 1 day hunting on the salt water was all it took and I keep my guns well oiled.

    I am not trying to start a fight........Dillon vs Hornady

    I have a 550, 650, and a Hornady Projector (old version of LNL). I personally prefer the Hornady because I can get parts locally. the Dillon I have to order. All work great, just pick your favorite color.

    Looking for 300mp published load data for .44 mag

    It is in the December issue of Guns and Ammo on page 28 if you would like to research it. Says all 3 are made in the same plant "St Marks" in Florida and labled for the different manufactures.

    Looking for 300mp published load data for .44 mag

    I was just reading in a recent gun mag (think it was guns and ammo) that H110, W296, and 300MP are all the same powder. Anyone else see the article?
