    Rust prevention under leather lever wrap??

    I had two cans of polyurethane down in the basement and after reading the label it stated not recommended on metal just wood. It probably wouldn't hurt any but I decided to not use it. I then thought about using nail polish that I had on hand for using on a front sight. It dries quick and has...

    Im planning on adding a leather wrap on my large lever on my Henry 44 mag. I've heard it could make it rust underneath over time.

    Reuse Lead shot?

    I do my own casting and have used pure lead pipe, wheel weights, fishing lures, and she lead. This will be a first for me to use shotgun pellets. No need to clean out the junk when I put it in my big pot and melt it down all that junk will burn out and float to the top. Once I have it cleaned I...

    Great thank you for the quick reply and information. So to elaborate more the targets that you shoot at are thick rubber sheets that you put your paper targets on. Stuck in the thick rubber is thousands and thousands of birdshot pellets, when I shoot my buckshot into it a whole lot of these...

    Reuse Lead shot?

    Yesterday when I was at the range shooting over at the shotgun targets on the ground beneath the targets was a lot of lead shot just laying on the ground from years of people shooting at these targets. I decided to scrape a bunch up with some cardboard and put in a container and bring home. When...

    Modified case issue

    No it's not a finish. I did slug my bore and if I did it right it read .314" which is big. That's why I went with a .313" bullet. Close enough lol. My case was sent to Hornady in the once fired configuration no sizing done.
