    "Screw on" muzzle brake stuck from factory!

    Hi all. I have a new Mossberg 4x4 rifle with a supposed "screw on muzzle brake," which I do not intend to use. Anyway, when I get her out of the box and attempted to remove the brake in order to put on the supplied thread protector, the thing wouldn't budge. I've tried everything, heating it...

    Rossi 1892 - at wits end with this thing!

    I have a Brazztech/Rossi/Taurus M92 in .357 mag with a problem, and I can't figure out what it is. 0523011535 by voxorganalis2011, on Flickr Looks like the round slips under the ejector as soon as it pops out of the mag tube. It's happened twice now, and the only way I could clear it...

    Yugo Tokarev part interchangeability question

    Hi all. Sent a Yugo M57 out for a Cerakote job and it came back minus the magazine catch (the guy is first-rate and honest, so I believe him when he said he put it in a ziploc baggie with other parts). I don't know if something happened during shipping or what. Can I order a Romanian part...

    Am I reading these pressure signs correctly?

    Hi all. I am very new to reloading and think I am seeing some telltale signs of excessive pressure with a load, but I want to run it by you guys to be sure. The load pictured here is a 100gr hard cast DEWC over 1.9 grains of Bullseye, seated flush with the case mouth, .32 Smith and Wesson Long...

    Is my Stevens 311 a good candidate for BP?

    Hi all, I'm the new owner of a Stevens 311 12 gauge and I've got an itch to try some black powder shells. I'm a bit concerned about cleaning the receiver, though. I've heard that they are bloody impossible to take down and reassemble without specialized jigs. Would the receiver even need to...

    Stevens 311 tenite to wood conversion questions

    I just scored a beautiful little Stevens 311 with a Tenite stock in fantastic condition and was wondering if anyone has had any success upgrading the Tenite stock to a Walnut one. In particular, I noticed that Boyd's has finished 311 stocks for sale. Anybody had any luck with them? Will...

    New reloader with a question re wadcutters in the 32 S&W long

    My wife and I picked up a pair of Rough Riders in .32 H&R magnum for SASS, and owing to the availability of .32 S&W long brass and .312" bullets we've opted to load those instead of the slightly longer cases. I am wondering if the following load would be safe given that the gun is built to...

    Only a Californian would ask this, I know...

    I'm the proud owner of a new Marlin 1895, a few hundred pieces of brand spankin' new Starline .45-70 brass, and several boxes of Barnes all-copper bullets. I'm wondering if anybody's shot lead-free ammo on top of the Holy Black before and if so, where I might find loading data. I have the...

    Topper Deluxe Classic choke tube compatibility

    I just picked up an H&R Topper Deluxe Classic with a screw-in choke system, but the darn box didn't come with any documentation stating what aftermarket choke tubes are compatible! The H&R website is equally not helpful. On some websites I've seen the Pardner and "H&R 1871" lines listed as...

    Question about standard pressure .38 special in a conversion cylinder

    After reading the story about the store owner who took down a baddie with three shots from his SAA, I started wondering about the effectiveness of cowboy loads as defensive rounds. :uhoh: Some Googling took me to these guys: http://www.buffalobore.com/index.php?l=product_list&c=23 This is...

    Bismuth roundballs?

    As you guys probably know, the State of California forbids hunting with lead ammunition in "condor zones," and has been considering extending that ban to the entire state. :banghead: I've noticed that in addition to lead-free birdshot, the major companies are beginning to offer lead-free rifle...

    BP hunting sidearms

    Hey guys! This might sound a little weird, but my wife and I are both thinking about getting a few more BP revolvers as hunting sidearms. Reason being is that we'll be moving to New York in about a year and a half and don't want to have to deal with the nightmare of bringing modern handguns...

    A few questions about the Uberti 1858 Remington

    Hello all! I'm new to the forum. I've got a couple of questions in regards to my brand new 1858 Remmy. Firstly, I'm trying to get Uberti's factory preservative off and not having an easy go of it. What have you guys used? Also, while trying to figure out how to rest the hammer on one of...
