    Ruger Bisley

    Just bought a Ruger Bisley in 45Colt, 7.5 inch barrel blued. I like the way the grip fits my hand vs the Vaquero grip which is a bit short for me. And I like the heavier Blackhawk frame too which allows for some pretty stout loads should I want to up the power. Took it out and tried my hand at...

    155 Grain Palma Match

    Was quite anxious to try the newer Palma Match 155 gr bullets in my 308-the b.c listed at .502 or so and because the older 155 grain Match Kings did well, I thought I would take them for a spin. To my surprise, they grouped worse than any sierra match bullet I had ever tried in my rifle. With...

    Delmar goes Italian

    I finally did what I never thought I'd ever do. Bought a double action autoloader. The reason is pretty simple-one of my boys is headed for the big sandbox in a couple of months, and still hasn't fired his M-9 Beretta. Had a store open up near the house called Sportsman's Warehouse, and they...

    9MM NATO Loads

    Can anyone give me an appoximate load which will equal the GI ball currently used? There's a story behind this: My son is a combat medic, freshly minted and has been assigned to the 3rd ID. They are training at Ft Irwin CA right now and are supposed to leave for Iraq shortly after they...

    Bent case necks

    A friend of mine gave me some 308 cases as he sold his rifle-all once fired out of a 700P. I full length resized them and trimmed to length, but I noticed a little wobble in the case neck as I was running them through my zip-trim. My RCBS case master showed a .005" runout on most of the cases...

    Colt Eliason Blues

    Bought a NIB used Colt Gold Cup Trophy a few months ago and its very accurate-HOWEVER, the darned index pin for the windage adjustment keeps backing out. Any solutions you could recommend? I know that Bo-Mar does a pretty creditable job of filling in the sight tang and mounting one of their...

    1:10 vs 1:12 Twist Rates

    Bought some new reloading manuals and it seems that new manuals are basing their loads in 308 Winchester with a 1:10 twist rate, rather than the 1:12 on the rifles I have. Generally speaking, I get my best accuracy with loads a bit shy of maximum recomended, but I like to have the data match...

    New Gold Cup Trophy

    A good friend of mine sold me a NIB GCT, serial number GCT111XXX with a blue finish, what looks like a Videcki 3 hole aluminum trigger, checkered flat mainspring housing, Elliason adjustable rear sight for $810. It seems complete, right down to the plastic baggie containing the weapon, bushing...
