A friend of mine has a .17 Mach IV he bought thinking it was a different round. Could the .17 Remington Fireball be fired in this chamber?

I have two rifles both on Mauser actions the .280 is a Flaig's on a 1909 Argentine Mauser action. The 6.5 I don't know who made the action. I have been thinking of selling one off. I have a case of 6.5x57 ammo and only two or three boxes of .280. I have hunted with a Ruger #1 30-06 for over 40...

I recently started working at a local gun dealer. He started buying and selling but is moving to restoring . My job is to book in all the guns he purchased as well as the consignments. Take them apart, research year made etc. I have only been there part time since I started. August was a...

I was watching a you tube video today about turning 9.3x74 brass into .410 shot gun shells, has any one here done that? I have 100 unfired unprimed9.3x74r cases. There was also a video about using .444 Marlin cases but they were only 2 1/4" long

I was at a Gun show yesterday and had brought my Flaig's (280 Rem.) made on a 1910 Argentine action, just to see what kind of action it would bring. I had one dealer tell me that I should just say it is a Mauser action. When I did a search only 1909 actions came up, am I wrong? I remember a old...

What is better for 230 gr XPT .45ACP. Bullseye or Unique (witch I have a lot of) or something else. I have no more W231 left

I years ago I bought a Ruger #1 in .300 G&A or .300 Broadcreek. It was a rifle made by the Broadcreek rifle works IIRC in NJ. It was a 404 Jeffries case neck down to .30. It has a fluted SS bbl. and a George Vies muzzle brake. My question is, how close to the Remington .300 ultra mag is this...

I recently picked up a box of .45 cal 230g Hornady XTP, but can't find load data using older powders. The suggested powder is Alliant Power pistol which is not around. Are there any other powders, (Bullseye, Unique) that would do the job?

This is not my post but is an interesting perspective, I am not sure about the number of firearms quoted, but it is around 400 million. More Americans own more guns and ammunition today than at any time in the history of the nation. Gun control has done nothing to stop gun ownership, it’s a...

Several years ago I bought some firearms from a widow who's husband had been in the plating business. The one item I bought was a nickel plated VIS, the frame and slide are nickel plated and the trigger hammer and safety are gold plated. The finish looks to be in good shape. I am thinking of...

A hypothetical question. If you live in a state that allows open carry and you have a cc license, would exposing your holstered weapon to de-escalate a situation be considered brandishing?

Who has the best deal on a tumbler and /or ss pins? Mine got stolen a few years back and I need to replace it.

A friend of mine sent me some 6ppc ammo someone has loaded fro his rail gun. The loader has passed on to the great range in the sky. Of about 40 loaded rounds 16 seem to have a primer that is sitting below the face of the case. 27 rounds fired fine the 16 that did not all seem to have a primer...

A while back I posted a thread about a rail gun project I was working on. I don't know or can't find any pictures I might have posted, so here are some of the finished product. It all started about ten years ago, a friend of mine bought the upper part at an auction, there was no base...

I moved to W, NC a little over 4 years ago, and have a neighbor who is a NC State Trooper. His wife and mine have become pretty good friends, he is a very quiet type of guy and we have been over there for Thanksgiving dinner and they have been over to our house several times as well. He knows I...

I am considering converting some loaded LC and TW crimped blanks into 300 BO. I cut one each of LC and TW dumped powder and weighed both cases. There was a difference of 3.1gr between each. I normally weigh new cases (sorted by head stamp) on a bell curve. What should be the cut off on the...

With the current shortage of reasonably priced components, what would be the slowest powder recommended for the .357 Sig? And or any other powder that would work?
