I used some HSM 44 spl Cowboy ammo in my 44 Magnum and found it extremely dirty and difficult to clean up the stainless steel cylinder. Seemed consistent however. I have used their 308 ammo and it was fine.That is the extent of my experience with it.

This discussion will go on for the next 100 Years. Minimum. Never liked the Glock grip angle. Too used to the 1911 grip angle. When I transitioned, I went to the FNX 45, which they purposely incorporated the 1911 grip angle. After 5 years, and countless rounds it is second nature And never had a...

I got a Henry lever action Big Boy carbine in 44 magnum 3 months ago. First, agree with the posters who hate buckhorn sights. With old eyes will probably scope it. The original front sight blade was way too short. I could not zero it as every shot went 12” high at 25 yards. Called Henry, they...

Include the Mossberg 930. I have the tactical model digests anything and really accurate with slugs.

Of course yes. Either an FNX 45 or “Murica” (1911 Of course.)

Consider it an intellectual exercise, as in black bear country I never carry anything. I have bears in my property every year, really don’t worry about them. Grizzly’s more of a threat, but your odds are still ridiculously low.

Wisdom in this post. Agree. In the mid 70’s I backpacked a lot in The Hebgen Lake and Spanish Peaks area West of Yellowstone. I carried a S snd W Model 28 357 because that is what I could afford. Carried nothing in Yellowstone as that was the law then. I now pack either a Model 29 or 629 in 44...

Not far from me.Nice!

Had one for 10 years. It was both handy and accurate once I shimmed the folding stock. AlexanderA’s post covered it well.

First, I don’t run around bragging that I am a troll on other forums, which you just have, as how would you know unless you have been lurking on the other forum you mentioned. I have never mentioned other forums on the High Road, and would not out of respect for the people who have put a lot of...

Simple. When your life depends on the reliability of a weapons system, you don’t round up to the nearest inch on any part of it. Especially just to defend a previous comment. As far as the rationale for using a complete recoil buffer system from Armalite, I suggest you take a course in...

This is pretty amazing, in that everyone has its champions and detractors. I am guessing firearm design and model variations have a lot to do with reliability of individual brands. I have a standard 10/22 that will feed and shoot anything but Federal. A Ruger Mark 2 that does pretty well except...

Indeed! College credit for that would be a good thing! Even between Armalite AR10’s you have the “A” and “B” models which have differences regarding magazine compatibility. If you have a “B” stock up on magazines, as I am guessing somedaythey will be discontinued. Mr. Flair, by the way hailed...

I have two complete Armalite AR10’s and both are shooters. I think you will find that more common then not mshootnit. Enjoy it! Looks to be a “B” model from the looks of the magazine.

Thank you! I will look for that.

CCI used to come in bulk, but have not seen it in a while. I have given up on most bulk to tell youthe truth. Seems I get a huge amount of misfires and jams with all bulk brands. And part of it is quite a number of my 22’s now seem optimized for 22 High Velocity cartridges. Including my GSG 1911...

Best: CCI Worst: Winchester, remington and Federal bulk packs. I only buy CCI now.

You shoot the weapons you are capable of mastering. I am 255 pounds with XXXL hands. For me it is no big deal. The recoil is strong, however. I download 44 magnum cases rather then buy 44 special cartridges because 44 special ammo is hard to find where Iive. And the handloads are cheaper and...

If you are in an alder thicket in Alaska working to get to a hole where salmon are schooled up, you want the loud unruly mess of a 44 magnum or bigger in a chest holster along with your can of bear spray or a cylinder bore 12 guage strapped across your back. That is what I bought them for and...
