    P32 Failure to Eject

    More oil. Different ammo. More cycling of the gun with live ammo. Shouldn't have to do that with a new gun. But the peashooter guns seem to need it more often than main battle pistols.

    Keep .280 Rem or sell for something else?

    Unless you are worried about availability of ammo at Wal-Mart, there is no reason to get rid of a perfectly good .280 The other calibers mentioned won't accomplish anything a .280 can't do for hunting applications. Buy five boxes of factory shells to acquire brass, and get a set of reloading...

    16ga ???

    There are LOTS of 16 gauge guns out there. If the 16 brings you some nostalgic satisfaction, you should get one. I have two or three guns that serve a regular useful purpose.

    I have several FIREDOT Leupold scopes. Decent scopes for the money. I prefer a GREEN dot. Most of the Leupold FIREDOT scopes use a red dot. I can live with red. But given a choice, GREEN is significantly my preference. Remember, a $400 scope has $400 glass. Nothing will change that. The...

    What do you actually size your 223 cases to?

    Get a case gage. Get a box of M-193 ammo. Push the shoulder of your re-sized brass so that it matches the measurement of M-193 in the case gage. If you are a benchrest shooter (or similar) do whatever you want. But if you're shooting the ammo in a semi-auto, IT MAKES NO SENSE to size brass...

    Field holster for 5" 629 Classic
