Yep, when they advertised a “catalog” they mean mail order catalog not just glossy pictures. Could order via Sears catalog or straight from most manufactures. We used to get the annual Ruger catalog.
I agree, plus in between those two is the Protac 2L-X which takes either 2 CR123 lithium batteries or one 18650 rechargeable. This is the one I use the most for a work light or for carry during the winter when the nights are longer. The HL-X is kind of big for EDC but still fist size and is my...
His story sounds utterly bogus. Half cock to load it? Teaching her gun safety while pointing it at her? Somehow it went off?
Good for the judge to slap him with bail. My bet is he was playing bad ass with a gun and negligently discharged it with his finger in the trigger. Cleaning, teaching...
What has changed a lot for me over the last 30 years is carry at home. I used to be confident with a pistol and shotgun in the bedroom closet. I don’t know if the total armed homes assaults (burglary, home invasion, mistaken gang hit) has increased. But it certainly seems the level of savagery...
Are those fairly blunt nose bullets to be jamming the lands when oversized, or are they seated out to max length or more?
That must be a pretty strong case to be able to take that much over pressure without failure above the case head web. Good detective work.
I remember how we could buy practically any gun up to anti-tank calibers via US postal mail order. Or anyone could be rifle or handgun at Sears, Penny’s, hardware stores, etc. and there was no where near the level of violence as today. I’ve read several places that claim Senator Dodd of...
This is what happens when you confuse your product (plated bullets) with your business (high volume reloaders looking for lowest cost bullet other than hard cast). Plated used to be about the only alternative to low cost hard cast and expensive jacketed. Coated bullets really took the...
Maybe it is a line of bonded SP bullets? They are lagging behind in that category. I would like to see bonded 62 and 75 gr in .224”, and 120 gr and 140 gr in .264”, and 150, 168, and ,180 gr in .308” from Hornady. They typically sell their bullets much cheaper than Sierra and Nosler so I would...
First, I usually have my G27 on me so sitting on the porch is no big deal. But I do think it would make sense for every home to have a front yard fence and gate at the sidewalk that would force visitors to speak to you from public property rather than coming up to your house. Many suburban...
Thanks for the info, I had no idea SW offered gunsmith services. Yes, they seem to be one of the most casual, 2A friendly down home retailers these days. I remember when the only one for a long ways around here was in Fife, WA and I was awed when I saw their reloading shelves. Back then (late...
Gunny, from your comments on the mishmash of ammo found in evidence guns it would appear that they do not shoot much except when committing the crimes, and perhaps are switching guns frequently and not as familiar with any particular or gun or even model. Is that your observation as well or not...
In the book I read it said Lee Simmons advised them to shoot first and take no risks. Even so, Hamer had told his team to wait for his signal because he was struggling with whether to give them a chance to surrender or not and wanted to judge the situation himself. But the youngest deputy got...
Agreed!! Hopefully Ruger sees this as a good configuration to turn into regular production or st least the half lug on existing models. I have never liked the full underlug lines.
Just for fun shooting we go to a state forest gravel pit. Last trip was in October before the snows. Took the M1 Carbine, AR15, Henry .22lr, S&W M29 Mountain Gun and Ruger SR22. Set up some steel targets and tons of clay pigeons 20-100. Yds.
Seems to me he was guilty of murder because he taunted the other guy. I don’t see how he can claim he was deathly afraid of someone’s size and strength when he deliberately taunted him. Might hold water if he kept his mouth shut and the attack was unprovoked. Or if the attacker had landed blows...
In bulk ammo Blazer 525 is numero uno in both reliability and accuracy in all my rifles and pistols. Federal Champion is in second place. Blazer shoots to sane POI as Aguila SE HV and Federal American Eagle but Champion shoots about 2” different POI.
I had one .22 conversion that would shoot...
I also find BLC2 and CFE223 very, very similar. My best load for 75-77 gr bullets inBLC2 is 24.4 which on repeated tests seems to be a very solid node. CFE was best at 23.8 and I’ve read others hitting the same node around 23.7-23.8. Like you I only had test going up near 25.0 but not over. Not...
