Thanks Blue, just the stuff I'm looking for.

Does relining a 92 make them weaker? I wasn't aware it would make that big of a difference. I'm not looking for a hot load but not looking for a mouse fart load either. I'd like to be somewhere in...

I have a Winchester 92 carbine that is being relined and I'm looking for a H-110 load. I have a bullet that dresses out at 118 grains and am looking for some help for a starting point. I know H-110...

I just tested the NOE 311-115-LRF in my carbine. This was my first attempt at powder coating and everything went great. following Mr. Gibson's advice on powders and bullet seating for a flatnose...

For deer hunting I like the 50/50 mix - ww to pure. The bullet mushrooms out nicely, does a lot of damage and usually passes through.Deer are pretty soft though. I started using the same mix on hogs...

I use the "shake and bake" method for powder coating. One of the molds I'm using has a tight shank, making it really hard to put on the check after coating. I'm going to check them before coating but...

I'd take 100, when you get around to it. Thanks

PB, I've had a couple Krag's with the Redfield 102's on them. Both rifles didn't run smooth with the cutoff removed. I put the cutoff's back in and used a little red locktite on the side plate screw....

I've seen them marked up pretty high. I missed one on 24 HourCF by thinking about - it sold for 650 I think and it sold fast.

A little off topic but is there any 30 carbine milsurp still floating around? Korea used carbines for years. I figured something would be around.

MostlyLeverGuns, You ever kill anything with those cast loads? That 311332 load looks like it's worth giving a try.

Thanks Camp, That's the kind of stuff I wanted to hear and see.
Forum: Leverguns
That looks great. Man, I hope to get mine shooting that well. What do you size to and what is your powder coat process?
Forum: Leverguns
I've gotta ask - what's great. Two inches?

I just picked up a 99 in 300 and was wondering what loads you boys rifles liked for deer or plinking.

Forster Hollowpointer would be worth a try.

I have a full length Krag with a Redfield No-Drill (#102) sight with Hunter knobs. I just decided to sell the the rifle - I prefer my carbine - but I'd part with sight if you are still looking. ...

So funny, I just did an internet search for 30 carbine cast loads. What I ended up putting in the search engine was -" Larry Gibson 30 carbine cast bullets." I'm finding I do this a lot, looking for...

I think a spare is a great idea. In the meantime I'll try the single screw and see if it holds under recoil. If the grind ends up working, I'll post pictures.
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
I thought about, not using the bracket but then I'm relying on one screw. It's worth a try off the bench for sure. I'm planning on hunting with the rifle this season and would hate for it to come...
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
I have a Krag sporter and I installed a Redfield, no drill sight. She runs pretty rough now, with the cutoff gone. Has anyone tried notching into the cutoff so the metal holding bracket could still...

If I put the gas check on before powder coating, what do I use as lube that won't mess with the powder coat?
Forum: Coatings and Alternatives
Thanks guys, that pretty much answers my questions. On a side note, I'm looking for a one coat powder for tumble lubing. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Forum: Coatings and Alternatives
I have a 170 mold for my old 30-30 that drops almost .311 with ww. I usually shoot .309 bullets through this rifle. Will resizing take off the powder coat when I'm putting on the gas check? Should I...
