First time posting in many years so forgive me if this is a common question. I want to get novak sights installed and get my new MkIII cerakoted and was wondering if anyone can recommend a reputable place.

I have looked around the internet quite a bit and found some good info but it seems there should be more for this cartridge since its been around a while. Any one have some good 110-120 grain load recommendations for this out of a 14 inch contender? Mostly looking for powders to get good...

Has anyone ran this powder in an AR platform using 55 grain Vmaxes? I recently stumbled upon their 5.56 pressure loads for 75 grain HPBT and got good results. Any help would be appreciated.

REALLY wanting to pick an olive drab Sig 1911-22 up and mount a Jpoint in the rear dovetail. Has anyone done this and if not does anyone think the wieght, although minimal, would make the slide slow enough to cause malfunctions?

I just inherited an old remington single shot .22 from my late brother and after working on it (it was in kinda poor shape) it seems as though the barrel had been bent at on time and someone did their best to straighten it out. When I push the rod through it gets caught ever so slightly where...

I bought a lb of this powder to try with 100gr bullets but have decided to go with 85gr Barnes TSX's. I know the Hodgdon manual doesn't list any bullets lighter than 90 with 7828 but I was thinking of trying it anyway using 100gr info. Would there be any danger in doing so? I've been loading...

Just bought a pound of this for my 9mm. It is sooo clean and uses a light charge so that makes it economical too. Loving it so much gonna try it in the 45.

I hate doing this but I didn't have time to setup my chrono the other day at the range while testing some 30-06 rounds and was looking to get a projected velocity if someone would be so kind? 30-06 22 inch barrel 130 grain Barnes TSX's 45.0 grains H4895 seated to 3.20 Federal primers...

Has anyone run the TSX at a moderate velocity out of say a 30-06?? I want to try the reduced loads for H4895 that Hodgdon recommends and I want to use the 130gr TSX outta my 30-06 and I want to know if it will expand at say 200 yards with a muzzle velocity of 2500fps?

Anyone know of any in NY or elsewhere for that matter? I really want to add another M&P to my line up.

I was looking at reduced loads for a 30-06 using trail boss and 200 grain Sierras and was wondering. If the bullet has approx 450-525 ft/lbs of energy on target when it is going 1000-1100 fps, do you think it would kill a deer at 100yrds or less? I know the accepted minimum is 1000 ft/lbs...

I have a serious itch for a heavy barrel 243 but, the one reservation I have is all the stuff I hear about useable barrel life. I don't shoot as much as I would like but, mainly because the rounds I shoot have a healthy amount of recoil. The 243 is a serious choice for me because the bullets...

I have a bug to get a 243 and would like to shoot one type of bullet for target and deer hunting. Has anyone had practical experience using the 105gr Amax on whitetail at ranges out to 200 yards and if so how did it behave on target? I understand it is a target bullet and weaker in...

a cut on your strong hand thumb from the slide reciprocating? I have bigger hands and shoot thumbs laying on top of each other. The flesh from my right hand thumb, near the bottom, raises up just enough to get contacted by the lower edge of the cocking serrations and after about 140 rounds...

I have been reloading for my M1 since I got it in 2007. I have settled on IMR4064 which I new to be an acceptable powder speed and 155 HPBT Nosler bullets. Now I was at Barnes and Noble the other night and saw a magazine dedicated to the Garand, the carbine, and the M14. In that mag was an...

I read the 243 thread that was just started about powders and didn't want to hijack. I know alot of people recommend using magnum primers in rounds with ball powder that have larger capacities. My question is, does the 243's average load out of a nice medium to slow Ball powder (like 40-48...

I wanna dial down my 30-06 in the recoil department and was looking at the Hodgdon youth loads with H4895 and was thinking it would be possible to substitute a 130 TSX for the 130 hornady they have listed? Has anyone attempted this and if so with what luck? Also had a thought to try the 110...

I have a 20" h-Bar I bought last August from Del-Ton that, although I am very happy with, I am regretting not going with a 14.5 or 16 incher. I was wondering based on the current market for AR uppers what would be fair to ask IF I was to sell/trade this out? It has the following: 20" heavy...

I recently got back into the semiauto 22 world with a basic 10/22 carbine (blue barrel and painted reciever) I purchased a few weeks ago. Now I have painted with Brownells Alumhyde II on at least five rifles and stocks in the past 3 years. The only thing I didn't like was the excessive cure time...

What are the new rifle prices in your area's?? The basic stain/syn one and the blue and laminated one with sling swivels are going for 289.00 here. Seems steep to me. The 2nd question: Does anyone know of a sling that you can use with a 10/22 that doesn't require you to drill into the...
