    Remington model 25 in 25-20

    I was hoping that someone out there could help a poor soul who is without a pricing guide. I have a shot at buying an early Model 25 in 25-20. It grades at about 80%. Missing the rear sight, but has an old tang sight (Marbles?). It has the really curved butt with the brass plate. I want to give...

    A change of Philosophy

    Hey folks. I am saddened to say that I lost my Father yesterday after a protracted illness. He was a great guy and loved shooting, but was more of an admirer of firearms lately due to his health. He had a handful of guns and today my Mother sent one home with my wife. Up until today I thought...

    2nd Amendment question for w4rma

    You failed to answer my query on the thread about government where you stated that the ACLU was the great defender of our Bill of Rights, so I figured I would call you out to see if you are a staunch supporter of the 2nd Amendment or if you are just a DU disrupticon. I tried to private email you...

    S&W 520 (Agonizing decision)

    I have an opportunity to buy a NIB 520. Any comments on this one? Worth snagging up? I would obviously not shoot it, which to me is just short of blasphemy. Does anyone out there have one? Is it possible to own a gun and not shoot it? Can I not buy it? I'm soooo confused!

    Old Vs. New Reloading Manuals

    I will preface this question/comment with the obligatory disclaimer: Don't try anything that shows up in this thread at home. With that said, why in the heck are today's recipes lighter than in manuals of old? Someone today told me that he loaded a 225 gr. speer for the .44 mag with a...

    Lead shot suppliers?

    Hey folks. I am wondering if anyone has any experience ordering gun club amounts of lead shot. We will be looking for over a ton of shot, which I know is not a large amount. Any suggestions on a supplier for a small time buyer? We are in the Northeast if that has any bearing on the answer...

    Cruddy Personal Defense Ammo Use on Deer (After action report)

    I was awakened yesterday morning by a friend of mine. This friend, a crusty old Mainer, came to get me because a neighbor of his had knocked a forkhorn buck down with her car and a cop had come by to dispatch and tag it. She did not want the deer,but we sure as heck did. Fresh venison in the...

    IMR SR 4756 for 9mm question

    Hey folks. Hope someone out there can help me on this one. I just, last night, completed my first small batch of reloads. As mentioned in the subject line I was loading 9mm (115 gr. fmj), using 4.5 gr. of SR 4756. This is the minimal load from the Lyman manual. This recipe failed to fully cycle...

    Coyotes in the 'hood

    The wife , kids and I went on a snowshoe hike today. We were out for fun and looking for moose and deer sheds. We did not find any sheds, but we found something of greater interest. Seems that we stumbled upon a coyote kill zone. We found a big disturbed area in the snow with what appeared to be...

    Whatcha think about the Winchester 67?

    Good evening folks. I was trooping around with the wife and kids today. Hitting the antique shops and flea malls, looking for whatever. This is a family activity that we all enjoy. Well, I stumbled across an old Winchester 67 in decent shape. Bore is pristine, action clean, blueing a little...
