    Ithaca 37 Barrel Opinion Question?

    Hey all, I have recently decided that a new 12 ga. Ithaca 37 Featherlight will be my next shotgun. The gun will be doing everything for me from now on. From deer to upland to waterfowl to trap and back again. I'm really excited about my choice, however, the one thing I am stumbling over is...

    Centerfire Bare Necessities

    wow, that's about as cheap as it gets! Thanks Slamfire! Only question with the Lee Loader, do I have to buy a separate set for each round I reload (for instance, one for 7-08 and one for 30-06?) or is it adjustable? thanks again man!

    Centerfire Bare Necessities

    Hey all, I know how to reload shotshells, and have done so with my grandfather quite a few times. So, I've got the basics of reloading down for shotguns, but I have never done any centerfire rifle reloading. What would be the bare necessities for reloading centerfire rifle ammo? (I've already...

    bb gun bbs as shot substitute?

    haha... Ok, so bbs maybe an idea if I wanna go goose hunting, but I just looked at the diameter of regular #7 shot... it's not even close. Maybe I'll smelt zinc instead... hmm lemme know how the penny shot works out... haha

    bb gun bbs as shot substitute?

    The price of lead is through the roof these days. Really my only options for cheap shooting are smelting my own lead or getting creative. I just thought about something today I'd like to run by you all... Would bb's for a bb gun be able to be used in place of lead shot? :what: They're...

    Lead Shot

    I want to start reloading my shotgun shells, but the prices on shot is just ridiculous... is there anyone who deals with "reclaimed" lead shot? Is it worth looking into? and where should I buy it from? (it seems like most places are all out). I'd probably be ordering around 300+ lbs at a time...

    Choke Tube Brands

    Hey all, I think I've finally made up my mind that I'd like an Ithaca model 37 Featherlight 12 gauge. I believe that it comes with Full, Modified, and IC chokes all made by 'Briley' with the order. If I wanted a skeet tube or any tube for that matter, do I have to buy a Briley choke tube or...

    Shotgun Shell Gauge Adapters Question...

    Hey all, I ran across something that I found very interesting the other day. Shotgun shell adapters. I thought it was a joke at first, but after I thought about it, it made sense and looked pretty sweet! I just wanna know what type of action these adapters can be used in... I heard that they...

    Slugs with screw in chokes???

    Hey all, I have had a cheapy 20 gauge O/U for awhile now, and have decided to make the switch to decent 12 gauge. I'm thinking along the lines of the BPS... But my real question I need answered before I can come to any conclusions is: Can I shoot slugs through a barrel that has screw in...

    Conversion Revolver Ammunition Question???

    Also, (I just noticed this when I saw a good close up) how are the sights on the 1851, I see that it has something similar to a shotgun bead on the end of the barrel, how's that work for accuracy compared to a blade sight? Especially with the v-notch .... Does that V-notch do much for accuracy...

    357 mag Accuracy from different barrel lengths

    Hey all, I've really been contemplating getting a 357 levergun, but before I do, I'd be real interested in the accuracy of the round through different barrel lengths. If I were to get a 16" saddle ring carbine, how much distance am I losing when compared to an 18" or a 20" carbine? I love the...

    Conversion Revolver Ammunition Question???

    Strawhat, wow! She's a real beat' (both are, but that open top is gorgeous!). Quick question for you or anyone with a similar revolver. Do you find the 8" (or maybe it's a 7 3/8") barrel is unwieldy? Does it feel too long, or is it weight well enough distributed to balance it and seem more...

    Conversion Revolver Ammunition Question???

    Hey all, I have a question for anyone with experience or knowledge of conversion revolvers. I'm specifically interested in the Richards-Mason 1860 Conversion. Anyway, When gun manufacturers like Uberti and Cimarron say on that their replica conversion revolvers can fire .38 special ammo ...
