    Mini-1873ish gun?

    I'm trying to find a small centerline revolver that's like the 1873. Like a centerfire Ruger Wrangler Birdshead. 38 special or 32 S&W (long or short). Ruger Bearcat 32... The Uberti Stallion Okd West Defense is the closest I've seen. It's still basically 1873 size though. Anything you know...

    1873 type grip frame questions.

    Looking to make a grip and grip frame change... When you change from a typical plow handle set up, to a birdshead; does the trigger guard and front part of the frame typically change? Or is the change just the rear parts and wood grip?

    Cowboy Load versus Half Cock

    Why would carrying a SA revolver full but at half cock be less safe than load one skip one?

    Barrel Sleeve/Shroud?

    Does anyone make something like a sleeve that could be fitted to make a round revolver barrel into an octagon? Seems like the legit conversion is boo-koo bucks.

    BFR Unhappiness

    I've put maybe 150ish rounds through my 500 Linebaugh BFR. It is the Bisley grip 7.5 inch version. I'm not happy with it at all. I've tried some Buffalo Bore ammo and a few different handloads. 420gr bullets and 525gr bullets. Enforcer powder and H110 powder. Some lower pressure charges, and...

    500 Linebaugh 1.4 inch

    I have a BFR coming tomorrow. I ordered a few boxes of Buffalo Bore to try. I have a bag of brass and some lead coming too. I'd like to stick with the 525gr fngc bullet, as my 50 Alaskan levergun likes that one. First question. Are there any 500 Linebaugh dies currently available? I'm just not...

    Ruger LCP Extraction

    I just got a little Ruger LCP. It shoots very straight, and even in groups. Ok, at 20 feet, but still... My issue is that sometimes, it fails to extract. I end up with a double feed, with the new round jamming up against the spent casing. This is across three brands of ammo. I took the...

    Progressive Loading 223 for AR

    I'm not new to handloading, but new to progressive presses and loading for a semi auto. I want to load lots of 223 for an AR. I'm trying to piece together a usable process in my head. I've got a few stumbling blocks and questions. Seems like most of the brass I have is needing a trim. How...

    Scrub out lead from 12ga slugs

    I enjoy shooting rifled slugs at steel out at 100. I do not enjoy scrubbing all that residue from my bore. I'll do 60 or so per outing. Is there a rifled slug that leads less than others? Best scrub mechanism? I'm using Hoppes solvent and a cordless drill to spin my brush inside the bore...

    Loading 10mm for Glock

    I'm not a new bandleader, but have stayed away from semi auto pistols, until now. I want to start to load 10mm, my pistol is a Glock 20. I've read that I must do jacketed bullets, that's fine. Prolly just find some 180gr to start with. I like Winchester powder, and I'm leaning towards 231 for...

    Anyone got a recipe? I have the bullets, powder, once fired Hornady brass, and primers, but need some load data... This is for my Marlin GG, so a modern load is preferred, instead of a Trapdoor load. Lil help?

    Might want a 308, but I have an '06...

    I wanna know what a 308 might add. I know a 308 is known for long range consistency. Is there any reason that my '06 should be snubbed to shoot at longer ranges? Recoil is a bit more, but any other reason to leave the '06 home and pop longer shots with a 308? My '06 is a sporterized 1903 that...
