    Is 32-20 and 38 S&W the hott new old cartridge?

    Press #0 buck through that sizing die and put it down on a light charge. "Cat Sneeze" or "Mouse Fart" loads.

    Tell me about the FEG HI Powers.

    there was also a 41AE drop in for the P35. I had one. It worked. Fascination and curiosity done with I shelved it. Then I remembered I had the P9R. So I looked at the P9R and then I looked at the 41. Then I looked at the 41 and back at the P9R and then... The parts fit within good enough...

    Tell me about the FEG HI Powers.

    First off this is not the FEG you are looking for. This is the P9R. The bastard stepchild of the Browning Hi-Power and the S&W Mdl. 59 I have yet to experience a failure that wasn't directly related to ammunition or me. The caveat here is that I'm a bit more than a kitchen table gun plumber...

    How Much Shim Under The Scope Mounts?

    One piece base and it's just trigonometry. Separate rings and it's a lapping nightmare. 20 MOA base? Gotcha. No need for a zero inside of 200? Okay. So, what's the problem? Next...

    45 Colt, Blackhawk or SAA?

    other S&W 25-5 ...But that's just me. At a MSRP around $1150 at the moment and a good used 6" around $800+, why not? The one and only S&W trigger and phenomenal accuracy. Don't get me wrong, I own SAA's, original and "other" and at least one Ruger . You do you ;-)

    Lyman Tru-Line Jr and a couple of nutcrackers

    I recently got inundated with odd, old, weird, and curiously effective reloading tools. Remember the Ideal Lyman 310 combo and nutcracker tools? How about the Lyman Tru-Line Jr? It came with multiple die plates milled, drilled, threaded, for 5/8"-30TPI as well as standard 7/8"-14TPI. This gave...

    Another Day Another Email from BCA

    TLDR 35 Whelen and .270 Winchester fans keep reading. All others, blah, blah, blah... Well, you know there... If I was going to go with the long action, I'd be tempted to chamber in 35 Whelen on one hand and .270 Winchester on the other. Either or both would get a nod to P.O. Ackley for...

    Guns per Year - What was your year of the gun?

    My last overseas contract. The other kind of contract. I maintain generators and such. Even 20 years ago my days of high speed low drag were well behind me. It was time to replace my service weapons after 20 years of hard use. 1911's BHP's M9 Mouse gunz .308 real gunz. Fal's actually...

    Pro's and con's of announcing to an intruder that you're armed

    I have camera installations with two way audio. I can be in two places at once. Wake her up in the middle of the night and all bets are off. She grabs a gun and secures the house. I grab a deck squeegee and garbage bags...

    What is you "Fun" gun choice?

    Process of elimination I guess. The BSA CF-2 in .270 is its own kind of fun because we're old friends and I load a laundry list of purpose built ammunition for it. It shoots everything from cast and varmint rounds to the common 130 and 140gr to the 150's for larger game to a round nose 160. The...

    And no, due to a long standing injury those magazines are facing the correct way, for me. Thank You for noticing anyway.

    Model '92~'94 Takedown

    WA governor signs big gun control package, including 'assault weapons' ban: 'No one needs an AR15'

    So just the facts because any exercise of my first amendment right to free speech would likely label me as a domestic terrorist. https://lawfilesext.leg.wa.gov/biennium/2023-24/Pdf/Bills/House%20Passed%20Legislature/1240-S.PL.pdf?q=20230422114250

    ...5rnd only? No mag for the .270?! Why wouldn't the 30-06 magazine work? Just wishing and wondering at this point because of, yeah, them.

    .270 you say? ;) Weight? I carried a FAL on more than a few walks in the woods. Yeah, I'd take 300 over 30-06 because I'm a 1000 yard 30 cal dinosaur. Hummm. My last budget build was around $2,100 @Big_Al , I don't know man, Wait for the inevitable TRO? >I live here too.
