A friend has a 2 year old Miroku Browning auto he purchased new at local gun shop. He has shot it less than 300 rds with CCI mini mags. It has been consistently jamming on almost every magazine. That is why he hasn't used it very much as he has other rifles. He noticed a slight barrel bulge a...

Rem came out with plastic shellsabout 1963 I was 12. I hung around a discount store that sold hunting and fishing gear. I was gifted a old fox 20ga SxS. I bought a box of Win "Mark 5" shells. A short time later there was a glass gallon jar filled with Rem plastic shells under water on the...
There is a reason that modern jacketed cup and core bullets were invented. They are much more efficient at killing game! why would you want to use old technology in a modern rifle? I understand you just want to try it! But why take the chance of wounding a game animal because the bullet didnt...
