I bought a nice German Custom 98 with a rib. I slugged the bore & it was for the .323 bullet. I tried my no-go & field gauges & the bolt closed on both. I then shortened a 30-06 case running it through the 8x57 dies, bumping the shoulder back until it closed snug on it. I loaded it & shot it, no...

Thanks, I just got a neat 99 Savage 20" carbine in 303 Savage. I have found Brass & Dies and want to load up 100 rounds, maybe wanting to pop a deer with it. Has anybody tried loading & feeding the Hornady 160 Grain FTX bullets in one? Thanks in advance.

I bought this out of an estate with some other guns. I am not very familiar with 86's. It was made in 1911, 45-90, pistol grip stock, takedown 26" barrel. It has a beautiful bore, but has been high polished, dip blued & the stock has been refinished. My question is the cartridge tube being...

Hi, I come from a SMG Silencer background, MK9's, MK9K, etc. I have tried several 9mm pistol cans over the years & never really liked the suppression levels they offer, I think I might be spoiled by the big volume, low frequency qualities of the voluminous SMG cans. I thought it might be time to...

OK, 2 same rifles, different chamberings, same rifle weight, same caliber, same weight bullet & same velocity. But one is more efficient, the efficient one uses 55 grains of powder while the less efficient one uses 65 grains of powder. Same recoil or is the more effient one have less?

It's probably been 25 years since I reloaded. I still have all my tooling. Previously, I would just load up the the accuracy load from the Lyman 45th edition with Sierra Gamekings & count it good. I have never loaded a 270 & I know lots of Powders, Bullets & thoughts have changed. I would like...

I helped a friend mount a scope on his Grandad's Springfield "Clickety Clack" 87A. I was surprised when I goggled it that there was not a real definitive answer except using the old side mount weavers. Here are the parts you need for top mounting a 1" scope. 2x Weaver 48012's @ $4 each 1 Set of...

Hi, I know that this is not the correct forum, but I need your ingenuity. Somehow, I ended up "collecting" duty guns. I have all types of S&W's, Glocks, Sigs, Walthers, HiPowers & 1911's from working at the gun shop. Of course, I also have between 5 & 11 Mags for each. I was just given one of...

Hi, I just bought a 1969 Euroarms of Brescia Steel Framed 44 caliber 1851 Navy Model. I would guess it was in a little fire as the grips are charred, missing a good bit of blue & it stunk like smoke when I took it apart. After cleaning it up, it appears to have never been fired, times up nicely...

Hi. I bought a Colt 1860 Army on Sunday, Serial Number 2124xxS, the barrel is marked "-ADDRESS SAMl COLT NEW-YORK U.S. AMERICA-". It is Stainless Steel, cut for a shoulder stock with a simple single border on the grips. It is missing a wedge, all other parts match. What do I have & what wedge...

I just bought a very "Grungy" Remington Model 58 in 16 Gauge with a plain barrel 28" Modified Choke. It cleaned up pretty well mechanically & is as slick as "snout". I also bought a flat each of the Remington 1 oz 6 & 7.5 loads. I just want some trigger time to see if this will supplement my...
