    Light 327FM hitting really high

    Finally got a chance to test my cast 130gr WFP and 100gr DEWC loads in my Single Seven. Still need some work on the 130gr(Accurate #9 gives good velocity, but is not accurate by any means. Might try Power Pistol). The DEWCs were over a couple grains of Trail Boss, couldn't get a good read on the...

    Legal status of a unattached shoulder "brace" for pistol

    Just a hypothetical that came up when discussing "bug out guns" with a coworker. They proposed a "brace" for something like a Ruger MK type pistol to allow it to be shouldered like a rifle. The thing that made me wonder if it would be legal is it isn't actually attached to the pistol, but held...

    Single Seven sight upgrade

    I love my Single Seven, but the sights are admittedly chunky. I would like to switch them out with a finer set, a la the Chuck Hawks article , but apparently all the parts they recommend are "out of stock". Is there any other options for finer sights on a Ruger Single.

    Improving the trigger on a Crickett pistol

    I would like to first say that this is not intended for teaching a new shooter (heavier pull for safety isn't an issue). I am setting it up for hunting small game. It seem to be fairly accurate with the irons, so I ordered a scope for it, and would like to improve the trigger if possible. Are...

    Does carrying with one in the chamber make anybody else uneasy?

    I recently started pocket carrying a P-32(in a pocket holster. I'm not dumb), and one of the things I can't bring myself to do is carrying it with one in the chamber like I see recommended a lot of places. I realize that it isn't really that different than carrying my 38 snubbie with the...

    Trying to understand something

    I'm going to cast some miniballs for my muzzleloader(Lee mold I picked up at a gunshow), and I am having difficulties wrapping my head around something. Do miniballs get loaded directly onto the powder, or is there some sort of wadding or patch between them? All I've ever shot before were...

    Guns you don't like...

    Since the "Cartridges you just don't like" thread was interesting, I figured it would ask about what guns. For me, the reasons are purely aesthetic. I don't find ARs and AKs very attractive, but some variants have a certain elegance to them, I admit. What I can't bring myself to like is that...

    What ammo for 32 ACP

    Getting a P-32, because I figured it would be a good to have a small, light pistol for walking or riding bike(plus, the Single Seven I already have can shoot the same ammo). I'm not really concerned about two legged predators, rather to deal with feral dogs or coyotes and things of that ilk...

    Does anybody make a 32 cal ammo wallet?

    I'm looking for a way to carry some .32 S&W longs that I made up for small game loads in my 327Fed. I was thinking of carrying an ammo wallet, but the MTM ones don't seem to have anything between .38 and .22. Does anybody make one for the .32 family of cartridges?

    Can I use HBWC data for DEWC?

    I got some 100gr .32 DEWCs to load up, but all the data I'm finding is for 98Gr HBWC. Is it safe to use the same data?

    Cartridge that you just don't like

    I'm probably an outlier in this, but for me, it's 9mm. My dislike for it admittedly has nothing to do with performance, but rather stems from when I was an assembler at Dan Wesson. All of the other calibers we built went together no problem. The 9mms were finicky. Failures to feed, extraction...

    Which 32 brass for a low-power wadcutter

    I want to load up some low power wadcutters for plinker/small game getters in my Single Seven. Would it be better to use a 32H&R mag caseo a 32S&W long. I will probably be using DEWC, because they are cheaper and more readily available. I want to say that they can create more pressure than a...

    32sw "mouse-fart" for a 327 mag

    Just an idea I am toying around with for my Single Seven. Would a .32 cal round ball over light charge of Trail Boss in a 32sw or swlong case be an alright plinker( and maybe squirrel or bunny load). I have a couple people that I would like to get shooting, but are scared of the recoil and noise.

    Ruby 32acp... Worth $160?

    Stopped in my lgs last night, and they had a Ruby 32acp for $160. Now, I kinda have a hankering for a 32acp(don't judge), but I didn't get it because, frankly, I know nothing about that particular firearm. Is it worth it?

    Do HBWC have any real advantage over DEWC?

    Pretty much what it says in the title. I would like to get some WCs for my Single Seven, but wasn't sure what to go with

    Western gun-belt(without holster)

    Does anybody know where to find a western style gun-belt without a holster. I have a holster for my S7, but I would like a belt for it.

    How much crimp is too much?

    For 327 federal magnum, with Keith style bullets, how heavy should I crimp without overcrimping?

    45lc/410 pistols

    Specifically the Super Comanche types. Because of a stent in my neck, my doctor recommended that I avoid shotguns(heavy recoil could dislodge the stent). Recoil up to 308 hasn't been an issue, but shotties(at least 12ga and 20ga) are a no go. It didn't really hurt my feelings much, because I've...

    Grip question

    Will grips for a Heritage Rough Rider fit a Ruger Single Six?( actually a Single Seven, but I believe it's the same grip frame) I was looking at some different grips(not really sure I want to change them, but I might), an noticed the price is usually lower on the RR grips.

    Overhead picture of bear/hog vitals

    I am looking for an overhead view of a bear(black bear, not grizzly) and of a hog, showing vitals, similar to the one I used in the deer ballistic gel overlay thread I did on another forum(I will out the revised thread on here, too). I want to expand on that idea, adding a couple more species. I...
