If both have the same except for the caliber, is the 454 much lighter than the 460? I held the 460 for the first time the other day and it seemed big and heavy. I thought I'd like the 460 due to it being able to fire the 460, 454 and the 45 Colt, but if the 454 is a little smaller/lighter, I...

A friend of mine has a chance to pick up these two rifles for around 325.00, the only problem is they are spotted with rust. Anyway to remove/clean these rifles up without having them reblued, to where they will look good again? He was going to pass on the deal, but I told him I would check here...

I'm looking for a good used Quad to use for hunting and just fun for my son. I found this in the local adds, but don't know anything about these quads. Anyone know if this is a good brand or not? It has the racks in front and back, which is what I am looking for to use it for hauling wood...

I did a search, but didn't come up with anything. Anyone use this model rifle before? There is one for sale, locally: Here is what he says about it: "These rifles were built by FN for distribution by Sears and has FN proof marks on the action. This rifle has a Wisner side swing safety...

I am new to reloading for shotgun. I have been reading about the MEC 600 Jr and started looking for one. Then I came across a Mec 700 Versamec with lots of accessories for 100.00. I have not been able to find out much about the MEC 700, seems like most talk about the others. My question is, is...

I am just getting into reloading 12 ga and have been reading the older Winchester AA hulls are better than the new ones. How do you tell the difference? Is there any markings? or ?

I went turkey hunting for the first time with a friend of mine and got a young male. When plucking the birds feathers, I tore some skin off. Later, when I got it home and was washing it, I noticed a kind of yellow fatty coating on the outside of the birds skin and the place where the skin was...

Hi all, I need to adjust the trigger pull on this revolver. It is the Virginian model, if that helps. Is there an adjustment on it? It has a hair trigger, that I don't like.

This will be my sons first hunting trip where he gets to shoot (he's 15). I was thinking of letting him take the weatherby 300, while I take the yellowboy 45 long colt for shots up to 100 yards. I load 230 grain bullets with 8.5 grains of HP-38 powder. My question is: Will this load be enough to...

I have decided to go with bedding the barrel of my Vanguard deluxe (wood stock) 300 weatherby. I floated the barrel earlier, by building up a void area under the front mounting screw, but I get movement on the 100 yd target. I'll have 3 holes touching, then one off to the right and high a couple...

I'm reloading 45 acp HP and RN (230 gr)for the first time. Been doing 45 colts for awhile, but acp is new to me. My question is, the Hodgdon web site states 1.20 col for both, which is what I used, but that seemed a little deep......to me.?!? So (after I finished loading all my brass) I checked...

Anyone come across a good "wood" Vanguard stock RH? Mine has a bunch of scratches (they were there when I bought it) and for some reason it bothers me some. Can't see spending 2-3 hundred in getting it re-done, so thought maybe some one out there might know of one that looks good.

I found this online book by accident and thought I'd share. http://books.google.com/books?id=tuVUMLRE47UC&pg=PP1&dq=bolt+action+rifles

I am looking for part no. 10 and the pin for it. Anyone know anywhere I can find a new one? Here is a pic, but this place doesn't have it. I have had this rifle since I was a kid, got it from my dad and it has been sitting for over 15 year, now it won't eject shells and the action is real...

I am trying to tighten up my group on the 100 yd target, currently I can put 6 rounds in a 3-4 inch circle, my loads and about the same with factory loads. I am reloading for my older 300 weatherby (Vanguard/wood). My question is, can you neck size with a fl RCBS sizing die? It doesn't look like...

I did have 3 different kinds of bullets and two different kinds of powder, but I think that was way too may different loads and just too much to keep track of, plus expensive. I am now sticking with just one bullet, which is AccuBond Nosler 180 grain Spitzer. I am also just sticking with the R19...

Hi, I am just getting into reloading and I need to know if the rcbs jr3 will work for reloading the 300 wby? the opening is about 3 1/4 inch with the shell holder, so it looks like it won't work.....or do you just pull the shell out from the side, after it is loaded.....?? I just bought this...

Hi, I'm new to reloading. I have been given some old surplus 4831 powder.One type of bullet I bought is the Barnes TSX Boattail 168 grain. The data I have is dated 1963 for 150-165 grain and 180-200 grain, but nothing for the 168 grain. Only the 180-200 gr bullets call for Hodgdon 4831 on the...

Hi all, a friend of mine asked if I wanted to go shooting with him at his club which is a Cowboy Action shooting club(I should have said no, although it is a lot of fun), he even let me use his fire arms!!!!! Now that I'm hooked, I want to get my own equipment. Contestants compete with...
