I didn't find a buck (deer) last year until the last day of the season, but that was January 1, so this year started good. Then, I drew an antelope (Pronghorn) tag here in NV (finally!!). Season opened yesterday, so I went out. Didn't really expect it to take all day, but finally got a shot...

Howdy Gents. Haven't been around for awhile--job plus a computer breakdown. I'm desperate for some help from the knowledgable base here. I need some parts for the rear sight of a Win. M-71. This is not the standard sight, but the peep sight option that is on the bolt. I believe it is...

Does anyone know if Lee ever made their Load-All in 28 gauge and/or .410? Not currently listed.

I recently acquired a .410 (Rem. Wingmaster) and intend to use it for this years dove shooting (if we have any). I realize a .410 is an experts gun, and though I may not be an expert, I'm certainly no rookie, and use Wingmasters of other gauges (12,16,20) extensively, so I think I can tag a few...

Do any of you have recommended sources for cases, specifically 28 ga and .410? The Reloading forum is about 99.85% metalic based, so thought I might do better here. Thanks!

It has surprised me, but I have been able to pick up 35K primers during the past 2 weeks (not preferred brand, but I got 'em)--and 20K were small rifle. I haven't (and won't) had to pay over $23/K. This is good! What are you fellows seeing? I'm still paying attention, and will continue to...

This isn't about metal work, but it is gunsmithing, per se, and this is the only logical thread area. I am making some grips for my Ruger Bisley--pretty custom, I guess, because I significantly altered the grip frame (made it longer). Anyway, the question involves the treatment of the...

Wouldn't it be nice (smart) if Ruger made this little shooter in .32 H&R? If they did, I do believe I'd buy one, just for the heck of it, even though I have absolutely no need or justification Just seems like it would be a grin, though I can't even justify that! I know, dream on. Ruger ain't...

Do any of you have any loading data for lighter bullets, i.e. 125 gr Sierra, using Ramshot "Hunter" powder? Their manual has nothing on lighter bullets, yet looking at other cartridges, it appears obvious that satisfactory loads should be doable. They have 110 gr loads in .270, even 125 gr...

I'm not seen a lot on this thread, but am definately not new to THR, so hopefully won't get newbie treatment. The Question: Does anyone know of a shop that does QUALITY restoration of the old Bearcat? The one I have is in pretty rough shape (not my doing) and I would like to see it "new"...

Recently, there were some guys on here talking about 7615's at around $400. The post doesn't show up any more, but I'd like to hear from these guys about their source. At that price, I want one, but it is way below my dealer cost. Help?

Gents, after 45 years of loading, I'll be adding .223 Rem. What powder(s) do you prefer in this cartridge. Looks to me like IMR 4320 and Hodgden H335 are pretty hard to beat, with maybeso a preference toward H335 because it is ball and meters easily. I've been at this long enough to...

Just a short question--what comments, based on experience, do you boys have on MagTec primers, more specifically in Small Pistol? As most of you know, primer availability is real poor right now, and that is all I could get, so ordered 5K. Am I going to regret it? Inquiring minds want to know...

I'd appreciate some ideas/input from all you all-pro hunters out there. I'm contemplating signing on with Carter's Hunter Services, i.e. the Huntin'Fool. It's not cheap, and I'd like to hear what you guys think of it. I'm sure there are lots of members out there, plus a bunch who've decided...

I tried this a year or so ago with no responce, but we have some new folks now, so I'll try again. Anyone have experience/info on doing trigger improvement work on the Savage 99? Thanks.

I'm contemplating going up to SD to chase Pheasants--but I need info. Can any of our friends here tell me about the overall picture? I'll be going in blind (other than what I learn here)--what are the hunting area oppertunities? Is it mostly private, no hunting, or can one realistically find...

Leaving to go hunt in the AM (4/2). See you guys in a couple weeks with a report if anyones interested! Good times ahead!

Something from another thread piqued my curiosity. How many out there have read the book by John Ross? If you haven't, you really need to.

Can someone provide me some info on this. It's not in "Cartridges of the World". It was to some degree common in Alaska in the '20's.

Kabloom!!! "Well, it went off." "Yeah it did! And look here, the gun's still in one piece!" "How'd it feel?" "Good! Look, the case comes out and I don't see any preasure signs!" I suppose I'd best start at the front. I was out in the yard laboring for my squaw when, luckily, a pick-up...
