    Ruger PCC and red dot mounting location

    I have a Sig Romeo 5 on the way for my Ruger PCC chassis model. So the question of which red dot has been answered. My questions are where to actually mount it. Do I mount scout style up on the barrel/handguard (there is a spot there) ? Or, conventionally on the receiver ? FWIW there will...

    Magpul DAKA grid organizer

    Who here has used the DAKA grid organizer ? I see they are making kits for my Pelican V800 which seems like a great option to new foam, and offers a lot of flexibility for different rifles in the same case. Looks like they are even making their own cases with the system. Looking for opinions...

    Range Report my first rimfire build

    About six or seven weeks ago I made the leap to build a 22 rifle for fun. I have a number of rimfire s but nothing special, and all stock. Grandpas 10/22 would be a good place to start, but it was my wife’s grandfathers so it was decided to leave that one unmolested. I did decide to do a...

    Arken SH4 or ???? For rimfire build

    I’ve decided to do a budget sort of rimfire build. It may or may not contain any Ruger 10/22 parts but it will be a 10/22 build as I bought a stock . The Arken SH4 gets a lot of rave reviews for its price range. In the same price range with similar features what else should I be looking at...

    Magpul Hunter for Ruger American

    Looking for opinions both good and bad about the Magpul Hunter Stock for a Ruger American. One of my hunting rifles is a plain American in .243. I've thought about restocking it but never moved on the idea. I've owned it now about 6-8 years and am thinking on doing something with it again. I...

    Another Single Six

    I finally found a decent Single Six in 32 H&R mag. It’s a “New Model” and came with an extra set of grips. I’ve been looking for one in 32 for a number of years and most of the time just could not stomach the price. They’re not getting cheaper, and 3 years ago I would have passed at this one...

    32 H&R mag

    I have a Single Six in 32 mag on the way. This will be a new caliber and cartridge for me to reload. I see some 32 S&W long ammo on the shelf so that might be a way to get some brass to start with. Will a set of magnum dies work for 32 longs ? If I want to load longs and magnums do I need two...

    ABLP or Pro6000

    Been thinking about an ABLP for a while, then the 6000 came out. I understand the ABLP has 4 stations and the 6000 has 6. Are there other differences ? Why would someone pick the 6000 over the ABLP ? I currently load 2 pistol calibers on a Lee Classic cast turret and load between 3000 and...

    where to go w/45 Colt in Rifle

    I'm looking to develop a load for my 45 Colt rifle. I'm going to let my inexperience show a bit and admit I'm not sure where to go. A little background, the rifle is a Henry lever action w/20" barrel. Scoped with a Leupold 1.5-4x using Tally mounts. I have loaded 45 colt for my Blackhawk...

    MBC Elmer K feeding in a rifle

    I am going to order some MBC Elmer K bullets soon. https://missouribullet.com/details.php?prodId=210&category=20&secondary=14&keywords= I'll likely order a test packet first before buying a larger quantity. I want to use these in a rifle. Anyone have any feed issues using these in a lever...

    Henry Big Boy Steel 45 Colt first thoughts

    It took a week but I ran up to the range at lunch to put the first few rounds through my new Henry BB Steel in .45 Colt. It's the 20" octagon barrel. Shooting loads I had made for my Blackhawk they were 250 gr MBC RNFP over 7.8ish gr of Unique the rounds felt "light-ish" for a rifle of this...

    45 Colt hunting bullet

    Thinking of a hunting load for 45 Colt in a rifle. I shoot and load 45 Colt for a Blackhawk and use Unique under an MBC 250gr RNFP Cowboy #1. I load around 8 gr Unique. Nice and comfortable. I plan to use the same round for plinking and such with the rifle, but would like a better hunting...

    Scope for Henry lever action

    I'm going to eventually want to put a scope on my new Henry lever action in 45 Colt. The rifle will be used for plinking fun and deer hunting our to 80ish yards, maximum range of 100. Searching and going on past knowledge says something similar to a Leupold VX Freedom 1-4x would be sufficient...

    Howa 1500 223 stainless price check

    Found a used Howa 1500 in 223. Stainless with the Hogue stock. That’s about all I know about it. Looks like a standard barrel from the one crappy cell phone pic I saw. Owner says 200 rounds through it, and he is original owner. Any idea what a price should be ? What twist rate would this be...

    Benchmade initial thoughts

    As I posted in another thread I purchased my first Benchmade this weeks and received it yesterday morning. I've been wanting a Benchmade for years. Friends have them and love them. I've used and own Case, Spyderco, Schrade, CRKT, Buck just so you know what I am using as a baseline. Case is...

    lever action which caliber and manufacturer

    Thinking of a new lever action lately. I own a model 94 in 30-30, and a Henry in 22 WMR so I have some familiarity with a lever action. I'll admit though I rarely shoot either. The new rifle would be used for deer in the straight walled cartridge area of MI. I currently hunt northern MI...

    Used bolt action .223

    I've been looking for a bolt action .223 for a while, I should say casually looking. I am familiar with the likes of the Ruger American, Tikka, Weatherby Vanguard, CZ, and Savage Axis. Lately I've been eyeing the used racks, and I suddenly realized I don't know much about older used rifles...

    Ruger Single six impulse buy..

    Upon leaving the LGS today I always walk by the revolver case to see what’s new. Typically nothing new but a couple weeks ago there was a stainless single six in there and I was curious if it was still there. It was but the price seemed steep to me. I noticed this blued single six that at first...

    Ruger American Pistol Competition

    I've been kicking around the idea of an RMR type sight on a pistol for quite some time. If you don't have an optics ready pistol it can still be done, but it is more involved than I care to go through. I came to the conclusion a while ago that I someday would just get something optics ready and...

    Hornady FTX or Interlock, differences ?

    I am the proud new owner of 450 Bushmaster. It is in an AR, and of course I want to reload for it. Seems like there are limited real choices, a couple Barnes, and of course the Hornady FTX. While browsing the Hornady site I noticed they have a "New" 245gr Interlock bullet in .452 listed under...
