I recently had one of my pistols stolen from my house. Can't begin to tell you how pi$$sed I was/am over this. It was taken by some guys who were doing some work to the house when I was away. I am a long distance truck driver so I'm away frequently. It was a Springfield 1911 Loaded, that was...

I am posting to my blog a photo tutorial on accurizing a M1 Garand. If you have a Garand and would like to make it a shooter, hopefully some of the things I've done might help you. It's been a really long but fun project.

I just finished up a rebuild of my Ruger 10/22. I did a tutorial about the process. http://guncraft.blogspot.com/ What do you think?

I finished this pair yesterday. This is Amboyna Burl. I love working with this particular wood, except that it is so expensive it certainly gave me a case of the 'nerves' before I did any cutting or shaping! Amboyna Burl was used in the past as a dash treatment for Rolls Royce and now because...

Betcha Didn't see this from the Main Stream Media http://www.wsbtv.com/news/19365762/detail.html COLLEGE PARK, Ga. -- A group of college students said they are lucky to be alive and they’re thanking the quick-thinking of one of their own. Police said a fellow student shot and killed...

When Clintonm was first elected President I ran the hunting and fishing section of a large Sporting Goods store in Oregon. We experienced the exact same situation as what we are experiencing now. Large quantities of ammo disappeared, then powder, primers and bullets. It took a few months...

I am buying a chronograph. This is my first one and I am looking at this one. The reviews seem to be pretty good. I really like the Midway reviews by the way. http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=852429 Do any of you use this chrono?

I have my Garand broken down right now. I decided to do some stock work by removing some wood that was rubbing/resting on my barrel. In the past when I would clean my SA I would use Accubore. A few passes with a patch and it would look somewhat clean. Yesterday I used JB's Bore Paste. What...

I am reloading a large number of 30-06 for my Garand. How do you handle a large volume of ammo? Do you size/prime/load and seat in one step? In other words, if you have 500 to reload, do you do one step fro all 500 cases before moving on to the next step? Or do you break it down to 50 or 100?

Do any of you all use a shoulder type holster? I'm thinking of something like this Galco

I am buying some powder for my two rifles. I have a Garand and a 30.06 Rem 700 BDL. I'm new to reloading and have my set up complete. I'm thinking that I'll order IMR 4895 for my Garand. I don't know which way to go for the Remmy though. I'll be using 165gr Sierras and would like to play...

I am just getting in deeper with High Power shooting. I have a Aug 1944 Garand and am starting to load my own ammo for it. What I am looking for is a good place to shoot. I live in Balto County and am looking for a range that can accomodate 100-200-and 300 yd distances. I have been to...

Bullets for Reloading? What bullets do you use for "accurate" plinking/general purpose shooting? I have a box (500) of 168gr SMK and I have 1K of these http://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.cfm?item_id=1218&dir=278|281|296 which I haven't tried yet as my powder hasn't arrived...

One of the guys here posted that he is having problems with a die that is scratching his cases. Should you clean your dies? If so...how do you clean them?

If you were to purchase new brass cases to load, what would you buy? I am looking to load for my Rem 700 on .06. I have some LC new cases and some Federal cases that I have cleaned and sized, but I have heard that Federal cases are not the best to reload with. Any suggestions? I am loading...

Well this weekend I didn't get a chance go shooting, so I started my first batch of 30.06 brass for reloading. I spent Sunday trimming about 100 pcs of KA brass for my X-Dies. This afternoon I set up the X-Die and started to size and de-cap. First thoughts...lubricating fluid is nasty...

I rebuilt my reloading bench and just mounted my Rockchucker today. I am really excited about this. One thing that I realize, the shellholders area definate weak spot in the system. The press ram needs one, my hand held primer loader needs one and my case trimmer needs one. I only have one...

Have you used any of this? http://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.cfm?item_id=3195&dir=278|283|313 I am loading for a Garand and was wondering how the Mil Surp powders would compare against the new mfgd IMR 4895
