    45-70 Scope

    Good afternoon all. Ok back about 8 yrs ago a put a leupold scope on my 30-30 until it went haywire. Sent it back and they said it was fine.

    480 crimping?

    Just bought a Ruger in .480 and was wondering what the preferred crimp is? I use both Lee and RCBS Dies and was wondering if I needed a separate die for Crimping. I know both seat and crimp with their seating die, just wondering what most here used and opinions?

    ? Neuropathy and Anti-Depressants ?

    What would you do? I have had neuropathy for many yrs now and used to take neurontoin but had to stop because it was interfering with my heart. So my GP started me on xanax and it worked very well, better than the neurontoin. I stopped taking it a long time ago because I worried that with a CCP...

    Ruger 44-40 value?

    I have an opportunity to buy a Ruger Old Vaquero revolver in 44-40 with a six inch barrel. Not the exact gun I was looking for but I am kind of tired of looking for the perfect 44-40 which I have been looking for for about a year. My first choice would be any Ruger single action but in SS...

    Lyman Primer Tube?

    With my hand problems I am looking for an easier way to prime other then my most reliable Lee handheld loader. My first thought was an old Lee single stage I have just sitting around but the only thing that would have worked with that was the Lee Auto Primer II but it's discontinued. Next...

    300gr XTP mag

    Good day I've been reloading whatever I can find for a few weeks now. Working on my 45colt loads now. Well I found a box of 300gr XTP mag and am finding data all over the place. Not much specific to the 300g XTP, I will use these for bear most likely so stout is good although I don't want to...

    Primer pocket & primer hole?

    I clean both my primer pocket and the hole. Is there a tool that does both in one step? I have a few different tools used for the pocket but my tool for cleaning the hole works from the inside the case.

    Gunsmithing Screwdrivers?

    I have gone thru a few screwdriver sets over the last thirty years or so but they all always seem to twist or break or don't fit correctly. What brand of screwdrivers do you use? Best quality for the best money?

    1895SBL .45-70 Sights?

    Made the plunge and bought a Marlin 1895SBL 45-70, came with ghost ring mounted on the scope mount. I want to change to something smaller say maybe a Skinner Peep sight because I can change to a smaller aperture. Would I mount the peep sight where the stock one is or do I remove the stock scope...
